Verse 1:

No guitar, but if you want to play along with the bass, it's doing something like this:

E|-----------------|-----------------|     E|-----------------|-----------------| 
B|-----------------|-----------------|     B|-----------------|-----------------| 
G|-----------------|-----------------|     G|-----------------|-----------------|

D|-----8------8------|-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8--|-----0-----0-----|-3-----3-----3-3-|

Timing is slightly weird here - it feels like alternating 3/4 and 5/4.

I suspect the crazy high pitched noises in the 5/4 part are Amber's violin,
but I could be wrong.
