The original is played in a standard tuning with the top string on C,
like this CADGBe, but I wanted to make a playable version with standard tuning.
So here it goes.
Recommended chord pattern:
Cm Fm Gm D# D
e|---3----1----3----6----5-----------|
B|---4----1----3----6----5-----------|
G|---5----1----3----8----7-----------|
D|---5----3----5----8----7-----------|
A|---3----3----5----6----5-----------|
E|---3----1----3----6----5-----------|
(So, all bars that's what I'm trying to say)
There is only two small riffs, one before the Cm, and one before the Fm
Riff 1
e|----------------------|
B|----------------------|
G|----------------------|
D|--------1-------------| Followed by a Cm
A|----1-3---3-3-1-3-----|
E|--3-------------------|
Riff 2
e|----------------------|
B|----------------------|
G|----------------------|
D|--------1-------------| Followed by a Fm
A|----1-3---3-1---1-----|
E|--3-----------3---3---|
