Open G is the easiest way I've found to play it. It's the way Stone plays it as well. Just tune the top two strings(5th & 6th) to G. I tune the 6th up two whole steps and tune the 5th down a whole step. If you can,watch Stone play it on Touring Band 2000, it helps to get a good feel for the way he's doing it.

I wanted to fit Daughter into my acoustic repertoire, hence the request for standard tuning. But, you're suggestions make it easy enough to tune; or maybe I'll just use my old fender acoustic only for Daughter

Maybe you can add other songs with that tuning to make it "Worth" it.
I was never big on open tunings but have found out recently that they do make it light years easier to play some songs. Plus you get a great ringing with open strings that you just don't get with fretted ones.

Don't know how good that one is, but the song sounds 1,000 times better with the open tuning.
