Standard tuning, pretty simple but a great tune. For the
verses, I'd use pick and fingers, but use what you like.
Be sure to let the high E string ring out as the lower bass
notes are plam muted. I think the whole songs on an
electric-acoustic, because the verse definately is,
and he just kicks in the distortion for the chorus, etc.
