Tuning:
I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct because I usually tab with help from live videos,
but there aren't many good videos of AnCo playing it.
Tuning: Open A (E A E A C# E).
If you don't feel like putting too much pressure on your strings,
you could tune it to Open G and put a capo on the second fret.

Guitar 1 (Deakin):

I'm not sure how to strum this due to the very heavy tremolo, so I'll just write out the chords.
