Sounds like the album version is detuned like this, too.
I've written the chords for standard tuning. If you wanna play it how she plays it, tune
your guitar down and
play C# as an E-shape barre chord on the 4th fret, A as an open E shape, C#7 as an
E7-shape barre on the 4th
fret, and E as an E-shape barre on the 7th fret.
