Ok, to clear this up before I begin, if I say a high number, I mean
that number, for instance, if I put 18, I mean 18, not 1—8. Ok?
Simple enough...
Alright, The intro is chords, and it starts in at about 25 seconds
into the song (you start in with Ben )
I would suggest playing this with your Pinkie and Index fingers,
but that's just me.
Intro:
G——17——17——17——17——17——17——17——17——16——16——16——16——12——12——12——12——
D——15——15——15——15——15——15——15——15——13——13——13——13——10——10——10——10——
A——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
E——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Now after that fourth time it goes straight into this rift with
barely any pause at all so be ready, here it is:

pretty simple once you get comfortable playing it. ok? Here you go:

The band consists of Ben Gibbard (vocals, guitar), Chris Walla (guitar, production), Nick Harmer (bass) and Jason McGerr (drums). Gibbard took the band name from the title of the song written by Neil Innes and Vivian Stanshall and performed by their group, the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, in The Beatles' 1967 film, Magical Mystery Tour.
