Fingerpicked intro in dropped d tuning and capo on 2nd fret:
e|---------------------|
B|------3----3---3-----|
G|---------2-----------|
D|---0---0----0---0----|
A|-----0----3---2------|
D|-0-------------------|X4

The dropped D tuning is pretty much just necessary for the fingerpick intro, and the
way to play the rest of the rhythm part of the song is with the following chords and a capo
the 4th fret in standard tuning..
