Tune down a half step (D#  G#  C#  F#  A#  d#).

All chord names I've listed below are based on standard tuning so as not to confuse 
folks with unfamiliar chord names.

Throughout the song, each time you’re on the D, Am, and Cadd9 chords (in the verse and 
chorus), embellish the chord by hammering the G note on the high e string.  This will 
cause the D to change to Dsus, the Am to change to Amsus, and the Cadd9 to change to Cadd9*.

Chords used: 
G (320003@1)    3  2  0  0  3  3
D (xx0232@1)    x  0  0  2  3  2
Dsus (xx0233@1) x  0  0  2  3  3
Am (x02210@1)   x  0  2  2  1  0
Amsus  x  0  2  2  1  3
Cadd9 (x32030@1)x  3  2  0  3  0
Cadd9* x  3  2  0  3  3

Intro:  G  D(to Dsus)  Am(to Amsus)  Cadd9(to Cadd9*)
(These same chord hammers will be used in all verses and choruses, except for the last 
line of the chorus; only the bridge changes.  I didn't repeat these changes in the chords 
below; just assume that they are happening.)
