the other one submitted is complete rubbish, and has obviously been tabbed by a
amateur.
This song is not made of open major chords! its made mostly of 5ths,
This may not be perfect (although it might be), but its much closer.

**  So turn down the fat 'E' to a 'D' so that your guitar is tuned so that the first
chord of the *verse* is an 'A' on your guitar **

thinnest to thickest :
A5 is : 	X X 2 2 0 X  (its the same finger position for all 5ths:)
C5 is		 X X 5 5 3 X
D5 is 		 X X 7 7 5 X
G is best:	X X 0 0 X 5
Em is		X (0) (0) 2 2 2
D7		2 1 2 0 0 0
E/D		1 0 0 0 X X  (he appears to play the thin 'f' here)

IN FACT, maybe even drop the 3rd note for the 5th chords
(which is the octave of the first note anyway, and makes it more grittier like the song
so A5= [x x x 2 0 x ]etc

when you see E* play 	(0)(0) 1 2 2 2
for half a bar half a bar of the 7th: 0 0 1 0 2 2
except of course directly before the verses when its just half of it.


so it goes:
