This is an amazing tab, but it's really hard to get the rhythm as you can barely hear it... can you post a playthough of this version

Tame Impala plays in D standard, check this dude out for demonstrations; https://www.youtube.com/user/sumjor/videos Here's The Less I Know The Better; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3ihfd67YCM

They play it down the fretboard, it would be the C# on the E string, 9th fret and the groove starting on the D string on the 11th fret (On E standard tuning, but as xAngelsOfHelix says they play in D standard). The notes on this tab are perfect anyway. Thanks!
