Lack of accuracy. I'm not really sure that tuning it's the fittest for the song, which is in E major, as shown in this video: https://youtu.be/WqXuSE-fo_4

When arranged for guitar, D tuning fits better. Guitar is actually standard. The guitar part is included in the middle of tab, no need for D tuning if your just playing guitar part.
