If you want to play along in key, but in standard tuning, transpose this song 2 'steps'
down
(it's actually 1 step/2 half steps but whatever) and place a capo across the first fret.
The intro/verse will then be: C Em C Em etc. Also the E7 at the end of the chorus is
played
in similar position as a root D7 but your index finger will be barred at this point so
it
should come naturally.
