Alternatively, Tune down your low E to D(drop D)
Transpose this down 3 steps and capo up to wherever works for you(3 to stay with the recording)
So the Verse becomes    or   

Play this progression instead, it gives you a nice step down

e--5---5--5
b--5---5--5
g--7---7--7
D--7---7--7
A--5---0--5
D------0--5

You must want

When he asks y
