I have yet to find a good version of this song, so here is one that my guitar teacher and I came up with.
I wasn't exact on timings or number of times to repeat everything, but
by listening to the song it is easy to follow along.
I guess the song could also be played in standard tuning, just move
everything down one fret, but for the intro and prechorus the way
I have them you need to tune down.
Also, there are two guitars in this song but I don't know all the little fills
and stuff that the other guitar plays, but this is all the main stuff you need to play it good.
