DROPPED D TUNING

(note - I think this song is actually either in dropped C tuning or
 White uses a whammy bar for the fills during the chorus. He only plays
 the low C twice during the entire song though, so I've omitted one
 which isn't really necessary and changed the other to keep it
 dropped D.)

I watched him play this on a UK talk show and it's in standard tuning and the verse is actually played like this;

e----------
B----------
G----------
D-7-10-5-7-
A-5--8-3-5-
E----------


The rest is pretty much wrong too.
