Good day fine people!

Been trying to find a tab for this tune as played by Hozier and though the tabs 
I have found have been
correct there is a vast difference in sound. This is due to the fact 
that Hozier plays this song on a
baritone tuned to B with a capo on 2. This means you can play it 
on a standard guitar if you tune down
a full step and a half (C#-F#-B-E-G#-C#). 
Hozier also plays all in bar chords on this one (except for the E).
It's pretty clear to see here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZapJqKROwc

To save time I'm using BS91x's tab as a template. Cheers for the hand mate, 
hope you don't feel I'm stealing 
your work.

Tuning : C#-F#-B-E-G#-C# (down full step & a half from standard)

ut this gives 

      
you 
the more
gritty bassy tones.
Feel free to point out any mistakes, this is actually the first tab I've got round to posting so
there may be a few.

PS : chords are not on cue, sure you can work that out
