That’s all except for this weird bridge:

Listening for the happy sounds

And I got to let them fly

I suggest playing the 9th fret with a first finger bar and
hammering on with the third finger.
Verse: same as Intro but add open E string in bass until:
"People, gettin' ready for the news"
e---------------------------------9------|
B------9--9-------9--9---10--9----9------|
G--9------9---9------9---9---9----9------|
D--9------9---9------9---11--9----11-----|
A—-9>11---11--9>11---11--9---11---11-----|

"Some are happy..." "let the music play..."

D--9---7---7-- -9------9---...
A--9---7---7-- -9>11---11--...
E--7---5---5-- -0------0---...
Chorus:
"Whoa ooh whoa..." "all the time"
e--4--5-------------2---5----|
B--5--5-------------2---5----|
G--6--6--3x---------3---6----| Which then goes back to verse
D--6--7-------------4---7----|
A--4--7-------------4---7----|
E-----5-------------2---5----|
The only untabbed part of the song is the bridge.
You should be able to figure out the rest of the song from
the tab above.
Bridge:
"Like a lazy..."
e--0---2---0-------|
B--0---3---2-------|
G--1---2---2--2x---| Then repeats to chorus.

version 6
TIPS:
While you play the D chords, you can use your ring finger and
pinky on the high e string to get the background melody you
hear prodominantly throughout the song like this:
e ------0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 0 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 2 2 0------
And when you play the Bridge/Verse 3 towards the end, use this
C and G fingering for the chords:
C G
e 3 3
B 3 3
G 0 0
D 2 0
A 3 2
E 0 3
