This is a bad ace song, with really dark and groovy lyrics, and its not hard to play and
sing at the same time with some practice.
It's in drop D, capo on 4.

Note that he does not quite just play one string at a time, its more of a broad but
concentrated stroke. Just listen to the track to get it right. The left(and maybe right)
hand mutes and articulates the music in certain spots to sound right.
Chorus: (I'll lay awake till all your power's gone)

Basically just a power chord on the fifth and then third fret. Listen to the track for
the basic rythm.
