This is a fairly easy song but the guitar and bass just intertwine so well..

this is the main riff, it's the funamental bass line of the song, even when
you hear the guitar
go from 5/7 on the A, this bass line still happens..

A -----7-7-7-----7-7-7-----7-7-7-----7-7-7-|
E -0-0-------0-0-------0-0-------0-0-------|

thats all you need.. i dont think there is really anything else.
i'm sure this is PERFECT, you can alter the way you play it (play the octave
e on the D etc..
i dont care, whatever turns your crank)..
