 I couldn't find a version that I liked so I just switched out the chords that weren't right.
For the solo and ending I just play use the same chords to form a progression that 
fits the song, so just do whatever feels right.

Standard tuning, unless you want to tune half a step down to be in the same key as 
the actual song.
