We have an official Funk 49 tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
I tried to publish this before I had an account, but apparently it didn't come through,
I'll do it again. The extra time allowed me to improve the tab though, so it wasn't all
The song is in sftandard tuning. Hope the tab helps.

If you want to play this on acoustic with a nice, full sound, use A and D, and D7 barre chords. Bar with your index finger and hammer the chord with your other fingers. It takes a bit of finger strength but you'll like the result.
