This is a very easy and great song to play. The last guy who posted this was
correct on the chord progression but wrong about the chords themselves. I
used his progression to figure out how the song is really played. And I play
the notes how I think they are on the album. I have a pretty standard
pattern through the whole thing. It's in the key of D minor. Not E minor
like the previous posting said. The tuning isn't 100 percent necessary but
it makes the beginning of the verse sound really good if you hit that bottom
D note. And if you ACCIDENTALLY hit the bottom string it won't sound too bad
either.

D|------------------------------------------|
Then end it by playing the first 4 bars of the Verse Part again and ending
it on the Cmaj chord. Ending it on C major makes it sound much more moody
than just ending on D minor (The song's key).
