Here it sounds like he slides up a lot on the recording, implying it's all on
the D strings, however live he doesn't, so I'm tabbing it like this. =]

LYRICS
_____________________________________________________________________________
Verse
It's way too late to be this locked inside ourselves
The trouble is that you're in love with someone else
It should be me
Oh, it should be me
Verse
Your sacred parts, your getaways
You come along on summer days
Tenderly
Tastefully
Chorus
And so may, we make time
Try to find somebody else
This place is mine
Verse
You said today, you know exactly how I feel
I have my doubts little girl
I'm in love with something real
It could be me, that's changing
Chorus
And so may, we make time
To try and find somebody else
Who has a line
Bridge
Now seasoned with health
Two lovers walk a lakeside mile
Try pleasing with stealth, rodeo
See what stands long ending fast
Prechorus/Interlude
Oh, how I love you in the evening
When we are sleeping
We are sleeping
Oh, we are sleeping
Chorus
And so may, we make time
We try to find somebody else
Who has a line
Bridge
Now seasoned with health
Two lovers walk a lakeside mile
Try pleasing with stealth, rodeo
See what stands long
Oh ending fast

How to Read Bass Tab: A Beginner's Guide
1. Understanding the Basics
a. Strings:
Bass tab consists of horizontal lines representing the strings of the bass guitar. The lowest-pitched string (usually the E string) is at the bottom, and the highest-pitched string (usually the G string) is at the top.
b. Numbers:
Numbers on the lines indicate which fret to play on a specific string. For example, if you see "3" on the E string, it means you should press down the third fret on the lowest string.
2. Reading Bass Tab Example
In this tab:
- Play the note on the 1st fret of the E string.
- Play the open E string.
- Play the 3rd fret on the A string.
- Play the 1st fret on the A string.

A|---------3-------|
E|---1-1---1---3---|
3. Playing Techniques
a. Hammer-ons and Pull-offs:
Hammer-ons are represented by an "h" (e.g., 5h7 means play the 5th fret and hammer onto the 7th fret). Pull-offs are represented by a "p" (e.g., 7p5 means play the 7th fret and pull off to the 5th fret).
b. Slides:
Slides are often indicated by an "/" or "\\" between two numbers (e.g., 5/7 means slide from the 5th fret to the 7th fret).
