I haven't seen the version from this link (cuz it doesn't work) but if you're playing along side the version on the album. You will want to put your cappo on 3.

For my tone it works best if I play it in power chords, as in the first chord being E (X799XX) A (577XXX) C (X355XX) snd the last chord being (X212XX) hope it helps
