This is how I play it (guitar 2). It allows you to play the intro correctly with all the open strings. A bit tricky to master, but once you do, it's a joy.

It's in the key of "B", and the capo 4 allows the second guitar to play in G. The song was either recorded with the first guitar a 1/2 step low, or the song was lowered for the released version.

I too believe the guitar was a nylon string, not the 000-18.
