Past Is A Grotesque Animal Tabs

(ver. 2)
Of Montreal
This acoustic version can be found on a CD entitled "I Found My
Tulip" containing other acoustic versions of their songs and some interviews

This pattern is repeated throughout the entire song.

UPDATE:

When Kevin Barnes plays this, he actually uses a guitar that is tuned down 
a whole step, that is, two half-steps. Then the song is in Dm(relative to tuning):

   Dm                              F/C
d|-1-----1-------1-------1---------1-----1-------1-------1---------|
A|---3-------3-------3------3--------1-------1-------1-------1-----|
F|-----2-------2-------2------2--------2-------2-------2-------2---|
C|-0-------0-------0------0-----------(3)-----(3)-----(3)-----(3)--|
G|---------------------------------3-------3-------3-------3-------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
   Gm                              Bb
e|-3-----3-------3-------3-----------------------------------------|
B|---3-------3-------3-------3-----3-----3-------3-------3---------|
G|-----3-------3-------3-------3-----3-------3-------3-------3-----|
D|-5--(5)--5--(5)--5--(5)--5-----------3-------3-------3-------3---|
A|(5)-----(5)-----(5)-----(5)------1-------1-------1-------1-------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

Obviously this pattern has variations over the length of the song, and the
notes that are sometimes substituted are written in brackets.
