Does anyone know how to play the "Hero of Canton" song from Jaynestown? I have the episode on my computer (along with all the others besides Trash) and i've watched the scene a few times. It seems like the Verse goes E - Am - E and the chorus goes like:

E Am E D
The hero of Canton, the Man they call Jayne!

That's the way it looks in the ep, but when I play it it sounds awful. I'm thinking there's some funny tuning involved. Can anyone tell me where the guitar tab for this is?

I've worked out a "campfire" version that I know is wrong but it works.
