I'm positive he's in dropped B tuning. It may sound a little funky when you try to play it, but I'm almost certain Dave has either way heavier strings or is using the baritone, or both.

I know, it sounds weird. But I'm almost 100% certain that's what he uses, judging by the pitch of the notes, and the positions he plays on the neck in the video.

it probably is. I found a way to play in just drop D...matched all the note. Except that part "I'm like a junkie for you baby" I got the rest down.

yeah, you can do it that way, too. That would be way more convenient than trying to do it dropped way down like Dave's Baritone.

best way to play it on a non baritone is normal drop D. , same tab as taparoo but instread of playing 3rd thread on B to get a D, play the open D instead ala DDTW
