This song and many others are located at the official unofficial guitar tabs site:

I dont mean to critique the tab but its missing a part.  There is a different riff between riff 2 and when the lyrics start.  It changes at about 2:00 when the drums come in.  Ill try to work on it but it may take a while

you do this

B------7--7s5s3-- and two D strums at the end of riff 2

instead of this
e-------2-----2p--0----------------2------2p--0--------

B-------3---3--------3-------------3---3---------3-----

, i hope this makes sense :-?

I'm a little confused.  Are you saying this is what he does in the second verse or is this a correction for the intro part?  And is it the D he's strumming or the D/F# 2x0032?

I know this tab isn't perfect so I definitely welcome corrections/additions.

Cool.  I just noticed the two tabs are exactly the same notes, just played on different strings.  :)

Has anybody figured out Carl's part for the song (Riff 1 and 2)?  

I thought I had the part that goes with riff 1, but something sounds off about it.

G--9\11----9--11-14-11------
D-------------------------------
A--7\9------7--9--12--9-------
E-------------------------------

So my younger brother figured this out and I thought I'd share.  This is for Carl's part on the Okonokos version of the song.  It kicks in at around 6:20:

e
B   ---------5--7--5--7--8--7--5--5--7--8--7--5--5--7--8--7--5--7X3-8X3
G  0-2-4-7-----------------------7-----------------7----------------7-------

*
e  ---------------------------------------------10--10--10---10--10--10
B  10 (repeat a lot)-12-12-10--8--7--7 ---7---7----8---8---8---
G
*repeat this three times then end with

E  10
B 7
G

Also, the way I play Jim's part is:

e--------------------------------------
B--------------------------------------
G---------0-----------2-----2----------
D---0-2----4--2-0-0--0---------0--------
A---------------------------4----4---0------
E-3---------------------------------------

This song sounds so good when the aaahhhhs come.
