DROPPED D TUNING: D-A-D-G-B-E
Tune the low E string down to D,
use the open 4th string as a reference or use a chromatic tuner.
 
CAPO: 1st fret (Will then sound in the recorded key of Eb )
 
NOTE: For keyboard and bass players set the transpose function to [+1]
to view the chords in Eb. Use the menu button to select sharps or flats.
 
Keep the bottom string droning throughout, I would favour fingerpicking
arpeggios. Either set of chords would work or use a combination of the
two options. In the intro and breaks hammer-on on the top E string from
the D to the D4 chords.
