TUNING: D-A-D-G-B-E (Dropped D)
Tune bottom E string down to D
CAPO: 2nd fret (Will then sound in the recorded key of E)
N.B.
For the bass note riff, if you have a whammy bar fitted you can
just play the bottom string and dip the bar for that half-step down,
the tab shown is a simulation of that effect if you don't have one.
