I transcribed these lyrics by ear, in the last verse Phil's voice is a bit too silent for me to hear the first
two phrases clearly, so I tried my best to make out something sensible. My first published tab, feedback
appreciated! Please keep in mind that this is more of an "electronic" song, so it's hard to "translate" it
to acoustic guitar.
