The following is a variation on Rockcru's very credible post.
I also watched the video version where he capo's on the second fret
very closely. Both E strings tuned down to D. I've made a minor  
re-interpretation of some of the chord forms. Notes directly from 
Rockcru's original 

 Chord Forms: 

    D (xx0232@1)   Dsus (xx0233@1)   G (320003@1)  A7sus4 (002033@1) A7sus4(alt)  Em7   D(alt)  
 D--0------0-------0-------x--------x----------0------0---|
 B--3------3-------3-------0--------0----------3------3---|
 G--0------0-------0-------3--------5----------0------2---|
 D--4------5-------0-------0--------0----------0------0---|
 A--5------5-------2-------2--------2----------2------0---|

Play the Dsus alternating with D in the introduction and in the verse 
breaks.

 Intro:  D and Dsus

 D (xx0232@1)                       Dand (xx0232@1)Dsus (xx0233@1)I got my finger on the trigger

                       D (xx0232@1)    A7sus4(alt)
 I look into your eyes
