*Even though this is tabbed out in standard tuning, I think the real song is
actually a half-step down. The lowest note in the chorus doesn't quite
sound low enough to 100% match the song, but I hate messing with the tuning
on my guitar so I just play it this way. If you want to play the song 100%
correct, just tune your guitar a half step down and play the tab as shown
with all notes up a fret on guitar except of course the low note (open
string E) remaining an open string E.*
