This tab is in Low Open E tuning:

I got the framework from this comment on Reddit:

Playing around with the above framework, the recorded song, and a live YouTube video, I managed to figure out
a way that works for me. I know this isn't an accurate tab, but I've played it along with the recording and it
sounds good. It's a lot of fun to play and sing on acoustic guitar and it's folkier than the original which
makes it an accessible song for playing around a campfire with friends who don't like Oh Sees.
Let the open strings ring as much as possible throughout the whole song.
