This is my first tab. Watching the live version of the song on Youtube helped me figure
some of it out. In the beginning, the thumb plays triplets as a rhythm bass while the
other fingers strum eighth notes and triplets. Kind of tricky, but it's not too bad with
some practice.
 
The hand holds a C position while moving the fingers to play the melody. The pinky plays
the 3rd fret on the high E and B strings. The middle finger shifts down from the D
string to the G string to play the second fret, then returns to the D string for the
ending of the intro.
 
Tuning: Standard
 
I'm self titling the chords since I have no idea if they are actually named or not. This
is to help give an idea of which fingers go where.

As I figure out more of the song, I may post a full tab, but as of now, I don't know the
full thing. Just thought I'd put up a correct version of the intro!
