Thank you so much for tabbing this!! It's one of my favorite songs by the strokes and I could never play it because I couldn't figure out the chords. Kudos to you for tabbing all the weird chord progressions accurately.

ive looked for this for wayyyy to long. Im covering this for my band and we want it to be accurate! Thanks a ton.
