There's a lot of tab in this one
There's a little riff in the verse played throughout the song.

|-3-3-3-3---2-------------|-3------2/3----3----------|
|---------------4--2----2-|-2------1/2----2----------| Riff 1

The "Oh my darling........." part goes like this

|-------------|-12-12-12-10------|----|
|-------------|-------------11-9-|----|
|-------------|------------------|-12-|

There's a part in the chorus right after the A7 chord, that
goes like this
|-------------------|
|-----------7---5---|
|-6--6h7p6--------7-|

That's it, I think. Please let me know if you have any
suggestions. I need a lot of help on this one.
