*I finger pick the intro and first two verses in this pattern to mimic
the
broken chords the piano plays (this is just an example on a 
C majorC chord, hit
the
appropriate bass note for whatever chord youre playing not necessarily
the
5th string):
--------0-------
----1-------1---
--0---0---0---0-
----------------
3---------------
----------------
Youll need to listen to the recording as some of the chords get played
twice
while others only once. Also this is my first tab and although I think
these
chords sound right I am by no means positive on all of them so I would
welcome any corrections if you find them. Hope you enjoy.
intro - C majorC 
DmDm 
E minorEm DmDm C majorC (Play the DmDm and E minorEm as a barred 
A minorAm up on the 5th
and
7th frets respectively then on the C majorC at the end I just do a little
tremelo
on the bass note like in the recording then into the song)
