I know it's tuned down a half step... B to D to G to D sharp barre chords but what does Stone play during the verses? What chords are those?

    G to the E to the D to the B.....Isn't it in standard?

    I saw in videos that Stone plays B - D etc. barre chords in the intro but if you do that in standard tuning to the record it doesn't sound right but if you move the B down to B flat barre chord it is correct...

    Well, originally it's standard tuning. They just decided during the tour tune half step down some of the BACKSPACER songs. During the verses Stone plays G-e-D-b but not in the last verse.
    This is how I play it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlbLgdQxtPU
    I recorded it back in August and I know many parts are incorrect (like 3rd verse, break/bridge part etc...)
