For this tab, on an acoustic guitar, tune your guitar a whole step

lower(D,G,C,F,A,D).
But use a capo on the second fret so that its sound as if it was in standard tuning
(E,A,D,G,B,E).
The reasoning is because as the song goes on, there is a key change,
and you have to quickly move the capo up a fret (or to your liking).
You could use this tab in standard tuning, but I suggest not to because it will
take long
