here it is but I am not sur if it is well accurate.

this TAB featuring in the french magazine "GUITARIST" from september 2004 shows it in Am shape with a capo at 1st fret (the song is in Bbm)

But live, Mark played it in Em shape with a capo at 6th fret like on this video from 2007 :

 

so not sure if this TAB is worth playing...

these tabs are also in Am shape, not in Em shape like Mark does. Would it mean that the studio version is played in Am shape with capo at 1st fret ? I doubt it

I think the best way to learn to play this song is to look at Mark's fingers. There are many live versions on YT with very good close ups on Mark's hand.

I think that chords progression is not difficult on this song. The more tricky is to get that right hand pattern with THAT thumb

Awesome! Thanks all of you

Lol this was made by using my vintage tab, which I've made many many years ago.

You can also check out our cover, it's pretty accurate with live version of MK's part:

well if you want accurate tabs, Foma is the Man   
and this cover prooves it agin (if only ut was necessarry)

I listened to it again Foma, and it's always the same pleasure : the tone, the rhythm, the singing, the feeling...all is great 

and your friend really got the MK touch, THAT thumb is there. congratulations !

Thank you very much Jean and yontwocrows, glad you liked it. It was almost 2 years ago, time really flies.

The link works perfect on Chrome, although I strongly recommend try to pick up this particular tune by ear.
Just because there are this 'thumb thing' going, it's a huge pleasure to discover the whole thing by 10000 listenings.
