Tuning: Standard EADG

This is a really good song, by one of the best modern indie bands out there at the moment.
The Wombats bassist uses a pick, so to recreate his tone, it sounds better with one 
I�m not a huge fan of picks).
It�s really easy to play and sing, if you�re with a good drummer,
who can keep the timing well, as the majority of the song is just bass and drums.
I�ve included lyrics to make it easier. Happy learning!

Drum Intro (kick, hat, kick, hat, kick, hat, hat, hat). Then bass enters:
