True to the studio recording (non-full band version), but arranged for a single acoustic guitar in Raised E.Was this info helpful?
Difficulty: intermediate
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 2nd fret

The tuning is Raised E (E standard, but with the 4th string tuned a full step up) and capo 2nd fret.
I don't like to tune a string up that far, so I tune everything a half step down and capo 3 instead.
 
E                                 D#
B  w/ capo 2                      A#  w/ capo 3
G                           OR    F#
E ---note the 4th string          D# ---note the 4th string
A                                 G#
E                                 D#
 
After listening to the song and trying to figure out a way to play the intro on different parts of the
fretboard, I'm pretty confident they've tuned one string up to make it simple. You're eseentially sliding
a diad around and keeping a consistent beat on the 5th string.
All fret numbers are relative to the capo.

[Chorus]
It sounds like the acoustic guitar is strumming very similar chords and letting the piano play the changes.
I think only the 5th string is changing notes on each chord. But for a single-guitar arrangement, I prefer
something like this {essentially Cadd9 -> Em7 -> Dadd11):
 
"The medicine isn't kicking in..."
E|---0---0---0----------|
B|---2---2---4----------|
G|---4---4---4----------|
E|---0---0---0----------|
A|---0---4---2----------|
E|---X---X---X----------|
 
 
 
[Bridge]
The acoustic part is buried in the mix, but here's the lead riff transcribed for a single guitar:
 
E|-------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------0-------------0-------------0------------------------|
G|------2----2--------2----2--------2----2--------2--1-2-------|
E|----4--------4----4--------4----4--------4----0--------0-----|
A|------------------------------4-------------0----------------|
E|--0-------------2--------------------------------------------|
 
                                                        "The medicine..."
E|-------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------0-------------0-------------0-------4---4---5-4------|
G|------2----2--------2----2--------2----2------4---4----------|
E|----4--------4----4--------4----4--------4-------------------|
A|------------------------------4------------------------------|

[Outro]
"I've tried everything, but nothing's working..."
