Tuning is ordinary.
Intro:
e--------------------------------
B------9--9-------9--9---10--9---
G--9------9---9------9---9---9---
D--9------9---9------9---11--9---
A—-9>11---11--9>11---11--9---11--
E--------------------------------
I suggest playing the 9th fret with a first finger bar and
hammering on with the third finger.
Verse: same as Intro but add open E string in bass until:
“People, gettin’ ready for the news”
