  • Open D/E tuning Capo 8th or 10th fret
    (I recommend the E tuning here, otherwise it may be difficult to get the capo in place)
     
  • The thumb basically has a 9-to-5 job on the 6th string. I've indicated some of the deviations from the strict rhythm, but these might as well be disregarded: do what your fingers tells you to do (this is nothing a guitar teacher would tell you, but then again: I'm not a guitar teacher). The thumb job even includes the 5th string once in a while, especially towards the end of the verse, before and after the A7. This is probably intentional.
     
    The slide up on the 2nd and 3rd strings should, I believe, be done with the first finger (or the first and second), in order to come in the correct position for the pull-off on the 4th string.

    The tab reflects the first verse. The follwing verses are almost identical.
