Tabbed by: newg (http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/newg/)
Different way to play :
Capo 5 (this version), no capo (transpose +5) and with the guitar tune down one step (transpose +2)
I think (because of the riff), that he play with the last way.
Intro / Riff pre-verse
Capo 5 No capo Capo 2 (-1 step)
