I found this on the Mountain Goats forums and figured I'd cross-post it here since
it wasn't up. Everything below my signature is the work of the guy below.

I typed up a cleaner/more complete version and thought I'd share it. I got
everything from the first tab, except I think the Bm is a B.
(And by the video on YouTube (www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ajuJ82ynjQ), I think the
first chord is slightly off, but it sounds alright to me.)
