This is my first submitted tab but I think it’s accurate.
All of the notes are here and if you can play the intro
throughout the verse that would be ideal. Also, it still
Sounds okay if you don’t play the bass notes on some of the
Chords.
 
If anyone can improve the fingerings on the chords let me know.
A little tricky in places but it works if you are playing solo acoustic.

I like to play it all above the 12th fret usually, helps if there's a bassist playing the runs, but doing them up the octave on guitar like... d|-------12-| a|-12-15----| e|----------| works well too. The chords for the verse up an octave are this; Am7 Dm Cmaj7 Dm e|-(12)-|-13-|--12--|-10-| b|--13--|-10-|--12--|-10-| g|--12--|-10-|-(12)-|-10-| d|--14--|-12-|--14--|-12-| a|--12--|----|--15--|----| e|------|----|------|----|
Good tab thanks
