This is the detuned version, easier for most players. The song can also be played
in standard tuning, Capo 2, key of E, but putting the bass notes in the E chord is 
harder (especially the E/Ab, equivalent to G/B in this version - 4th fret low E, 
and you have to play it with your pinky). I'll have that version up shortly. If 
you're not playing along with the album track, just play this in standard an 
you'll be fine. Have fun!
