Tuning: open F#: F#

[C#]
[A#]
[F#]
Tune your bottom E string down to F#, so that it matches the first chord played during the song.
Then tune on these frets (5-5-5-4-5 being standard tuning): 4-3-5-4-9
I am unsure of what these actual chords are as this is not a standardized tuning, so
with me and ignore the chord name; just follow the fingering.

Outro: And I move on, and I am aching etc.
You are basically playing variations of the chord phrases you found in the song, with
exception of this little ditty:
Open strumming the entire time! (meaning strum all 6 strings) just slide your index
onto the notes:
F#|--0----------------|
A#|--0----------------|
F#|--0-h-2-\-4--------|
C#|--0----------4-----|
A#|--0------------3---|
F#|--0----------------|
Once you've figured out the timing, the song is relatively simple.
