Tuning: Standard
Ok I'd say this tab is about 85% correct. There are a lot of chords
that took me a while to figure out in the song, but I think I'm
pretty close. I can promise you that this is closer than just about
anything else you'll find for this song on the internet without having
to download cr*p.
This song is in the key of E.
Beginning lick:
e--------------------------9-------------------------------------7----------| b-----------7-7-9p7-9-9/10---9p7-9-7~-------------7-7-9p7-9-9/10---9p7------| g-8-8-9p8-9-----------------------------8-8-9p8-9----------------------9-8~-| d---------------------------------------------------------------------------| a---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

This is the part I'm the most unsure of, but it's still pretty close.
e-------------------| b-7-5-5-------------| g-8-6-6-------------|Play 2 d-------9-6-4/6-7-1-|times a-------9-7-5/7-7-2-| E-------------------|

Main verse riff:
E Emaj7 E7 A B E
e-7-9-7-7----7-|-7-9-7-7----7-|-7-9-7-7----7-|-0-2-0-0---0-|-2-4-2-2---2-|-7-9-7-7----7---| b-9-9-9-9h10-9-|-9-9-9-9h10-9-|-9-9-9-9h10-9-|-2-2-2-2h3-2-|-4-4-4-4h5-4-|-9-9-9-9h10-9---| g-9-9-9-9----9-|-8-8-8-8----8-|-7-7-7-7----7-|-2-2-2-2---2-|-4-4-4-4---4-|-9-9-9-9----9---| d--------------|--------------|--------------|--play-------|--play-------|----------------| a--------------|--------------|--------------|--twice------|--twice------|----------------| E--------------|--------------|--------------|-------------|-------------|----------------|

This is occasionally played during verses:
e-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------| b-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------| g-9-9-9-9-9-9-|-8-8-8-8-8-8-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-|-2-2-2-2-2-2-|-4-4-4-4-4-4-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-| d-------------|-------------|-------------|--play-------|--play-------|-------------| a-------------|-------------|-------------|--twice------|--twice------|-------------| E-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|

At the end of each verse this is played:
e-----------------------------------------| b-----------------------------------------| g-----------------------------------------| d-----------------------------------------| a-----------------------------------------| E-0-2-4-2-0-2-0---0-2-4-2---0-2-4-2-0-2-0-|

During the chorus they just play fills(which I couldn't hear well
enough to tab out), but these are the main chords.
B A E
I...singer. I...foreign lands
e--------------------------| b--------------------------| g------------------------9-| d-9------------7---------9-| a-9------------7---------7-| E-7------------5-----------|

And that covers the entire song. Just apply these parts to the
appropriate sections of the song.
