VSCode - multiline selection - aligning with TAB

Quite often I have to change CSV files into PHP arrays and I almost got a quick way of doing it but there's last bit I can't figure out.

I get from this csv

label_a         label_b
test_a          test_b
test1111_a      test1111_b
test2222222_a   test2222222_b

to this:

"test_a" => "test_b",
"test1111_a" => "test1_b",
"test2222222_a" => "test2_b"

But I have a problem aligning the =>, I would like to align them like this:

"test_a"        => "test_b",
"test1111_a"    => "test1_b",
"test2222222_a" => "test2_b"

I keep my cursor here:

"test_a" |=> "test_b",
"test1111_a" |=> "test1_b",
"test2222222_a" |=> "test2_b"

but pressing tab, it obviously moves each line one tab (2 spaces in my case). Is there anyway to do it with VSCode? (maybe it's just wishful thinking)
