Ok there is no bass intro as you probably know, when the singer starts singing you count
1,2,1,2 in time with the bass while playing these notes:
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————
——————————————5———————————5—0—————————5——————————5—0———
^^^^
play this part really fast while muting the sound of the open 0 because it sounds like
its only 2 notes whereas it is 2 notes
on the 34second it changes simply to:
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
————————————————6——————————————60————————————————6—————6——0——
just in the same tune
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
—————————————4—————————————4———0———————————————4————————————40————
Occasionally jumps down to the 4th fret as above
very easy!

The Pogues is a band of mixed Irish and English background, playing traditional Irish music with influences from punk rock and folk, formed in 1982 and fronted by Shane MacGowan. The band reached international prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. MacGowan left the band in 1991 due to drinking problems but the band continued first with Joe Strummer and then with Spider Stacy on vocals before breaking up in 1996. The band reformed in 2001, and has been playing regularly ever since, most notably on the US East Coast every spring (bar 2010) and around the UK and Ireland every December. The group has yet to record any new music and according to Spider Stacy on Pogues.com has no inclination to do so.
