Tuning: Standard EADGBe
There are two guitars overlapped in this song, and along with that, a lap
steel guitar.
two main guitars are a steel acoustic and a solid electric. This is how I would play
acoustic part of the song (the electric is nearly identical, just played on a different fret):

For the second time around on this, add your pinkie to 3 on the C to get that high

you the similar sound isaac gets in the song.
