Capo: 1.
This tab should be accurate. I've watched how he plays it live in various videos just to make sure. He changes what fret he capos at, but it's usually at the first or without a capo. He also changes up which chords he uses in different videos, so this is just one of the ways that he plays it. There are two ways that you can play it, the first is what Kris Allen does, and the second is just a simpler variation of the original chords. Make sure to listen to the song for timing and strumming. Here is a link to the studio recording: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGJGTdhbGEM Standard Tuning No capo or capo 1, or wherever suits your voice. I think the studio version is capo 1. Chords used: Chords Kris Allen uses Am7 or Am7 F Dm E7 e|--x--|--0--|--1--|--5--|--x--| B|--x--|--0--|--1--|--6--|--5--| G|--5--|--5--|--2--|--5--|--7--| D|--5--|--5--|--3--|--7--|--6--| A|--x--|--0--|--3--|--5--|--7--| E|--5--|--5--|--1--|--x--|--x--| Simpler chords Am7 F or F Dm E7 e|--0--|--1--|--1--|--1--|--0--| B|--1--|--1--|--1--|--3--|--0--| G|--0--|--2--|--2--|--2--|--1--| D|--2--|--3--|--3--|--0--|--0--| A|--0--|--3--|--x--|--x--|--2--| E|--x--|--1--|--x--|--x--|--0--|

I'm fairly certain he ends with 'F' but it can also be ended with 'Am7'
