How to play Iris in standard tuning

It lags realy bad, so I wouldn't follow the vid as much as just listening to the audio. But alot of people have been asking me how to play Iris, and the problem is that you really do have to tune to BDDDDD to make it sound anything like it should. But if you need to play it in a pinch, here's how I do it in standard tuning.

Enjoy!

Yeah...good cover, but like frnK0ZZ said, this isn't Iris, it's 'You and Me' by Lifehouse.

@captainwhiteshadow I cover You and Me a good bit as well, and if this is how you play that song, you're definitely not playing it right. Here I'm playing G Asus C : Em D C (loosely naming them). You and Me starts out G C D/F# G : Em D C.

I suppose you could play the same chords and it wouldn't sound terrible, but they're definitely different. Whatever works for you man :)

Could you post the chords somewhere? The variations you use aren't ones I know. I'm not sure if others do, but I would be interested in knowing.

@TheiFiles check out the remake I made of this. its clearer and I go on a bit more depth. I've also typed out the chords

Whatever happened to the googoo dolls? Last time I saw them they were on Leno 4 or 5 years ago and the YoYo bassist was playing the egg shaker with his legs crossed on an Indian rug sporting the goofiest smile Ive  ever saw.
