June 8, 200818 yr I'm very curious too! It seems to be rather higher frets than on the versions posted before.
June 8, 200818 yr I guess he plays in standard tuning. He uses his thumb on the E-string throughout the song, but in the outro he also plays some regular bar chords (marked with a star (*)). I'm not 100% sure about the outro, since the camera isn't filming his guitar all the time. There are some rapid chord changes there - maybe someone can correct me?

June 8, 200818 yr looks pretty good I agree those rapid changes at the end were hard to catch but you did a good job I think. The entire song is bar chords ( except Chris uses the thumb technique for that) I guess he plays in standard tuning. He uses his thumb on the E-string throughout the song, but in the outro he also plays some regular bar chords (marked with a star (*)).
