Pillows - Happy Bivouac tab

Song: Happy Bivouac
Album: Happy Bivouac
Artist: The Pillows

Very catchy chord progressions which include a few half-step ups 
and downs and a major minor chord (I don't know how to explain this 
but you'll see). It sounds like they have 3 guitars (with 2 leads). 
To be sure, just listen to the song and you'll get the whole tab.

Lyrics:
VERSE 1
Nee dore kurai tatta no ka nante

CHORUS 1

VERSE 2
Ie nai kurai taku san no itami sae

Translation:
VERSE 1
Hey, how much farther is it?
Not that it really matters
Man, today too
I can't catch up to who I want to be at this rate

CHORUS 1
Tomorrow, we go ashore
Drenched, we tiptoe
Turning to face the summit, a little
Happy Bivouac

VERSE 2
There are a lot of painful, unspeakable things
Lately, I'm a laughingstock
No matter how many times we say "One more time!"
We're just taking detours

CHORUS 2
I don't want to imitate someone's imitation
Let's travel the way without a way
Are we near the summit? A little
Happy Bivouac

CHORUS 3
We asked the people around here
and the answer we received?
"There is no summit."
Yes, Happy Bivouac, Yeah, Wooh!
