Version 1
            I was looking at the first two versions of the tabs for this song and found that the
bar chords throughout the song sound better and won't give you carpel tunnel if a capo is
used and they are played as open chords.  Also I added another chord that transitions well 
from the last note of the pattern to the first which I can hear in the actual song.
This is my first tab, but a simple song, so here it goes.

Note: - the chords are placed directly above the syllable that should be sung.
