I believe this song is tuned to drop D, but I'm going to show you how to play it out of
tuning. The key to me sounds like A flat / G Sharp. Anyway, here's how I play it.
listen to the song for the rhythm and timing changes, I'm just showing you the chords to
in the order..
Rift A
"I packed my case..."
A flat, E flat, B flat

Break A
"...for reasons unknown" (only the first time)
A flat

And that's it.. repeat as the song goes. I again, i think this may sound better if you
to drop d and hit the D#/E flat lower on the fretboard, but i think it sounds fine played
fifth string.
Playing it this way also sounds pretty good with full chords on the acoustic.
