The song goes way back. The original;

If you can find a copy of the June 2000 issue of Acoustic Guitar magazine, they have it tabbed out there.

Mercury tab
I'd sure love to get a copy of that tab. I'll post it here if you would email it to me.

Mercury Blues tab Acoustic Guitar mag and David Lindley
I heard this at SiriusXM Deep Tracks this morning on Tom Petty's radio program. I'm glad the tablature is located here so I don't have to slog through boxes of Acoustic Guitar mag. Thanks for the reference, Brad!
By the way, the tab is in the key of D. David Lindley took one of his DADGAD tuned instruments and tuned one string down a half step to DADF#AD as noted
I love this song too...

El Rayo-X was an album David Lindley put out with Mercury Blues on it IIRC.....also the name of his band too.
My personal favorite version Lindley did:
