The last guy who posted this was correct on the chord progression but wrong about the chords themselves. I used his progression to figure out how the song is really played. And I play the notes how I think they are on the album. I have a pretty standard pattern through the whole thing. It's in the key of D minor. Not E minor like the previous posting said. The tuning isn't 100 percent necessary but it makes the beginning of the verse sound really good if you hit that bottom D note. And if you ACCIDENTALLY hit the bottom string it won't sound too bad either.

Ending it on C major makes it sound much more moody than just ending on D minor (The song's key).
