I first heard this track live at Portsmouth Guildhall, and thought i'd try to learn it.
couldn't find a tab anywhere, so I was forced to listen to the song repeatedly untill i
play it. I thought I may as well try and get a little credit for my efforts and be the
first to post this tab enjoy

Capo: 4th fret (note: tabbed as though there is no capo, so 0 on bottom E would sound 4)
Tuning: Drop D
FIRST BIT (VERSE)
strum each chord and emphasise the melody on the a string with light struming on others.
listen to the song for rhythm (as always)

SLIDY BIT (VERSE PART 2)
Theres a cool sounding yet easy to play slidy bit here. Its easy because you dont need
of the other fingers, you can just concentrate on the slide: a quick "strum note -
up - slide down - pull off" in one fluid motion, while still strumming the other notes.
Just let your right hand continue strumming the chord while the left does the fingerwork.
