Here's the tuning.
>From low to high it is : C G Eb F B D
In 'Joni' notation this is : C 7 8 2 5 4
You do need to listen to the song to see how it's played. I've really
only included the bare essentials (the chord shapes, and a couple of
strumming patterns). The song starts off with the bottom C hit really hard,
and the following harmonics:
D-----7---------------12---------------------------
B-----7------5--------12---------------------------
F-----7------5--------12---------------------------
Eb-----------5--------12---------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------
C--------------------------------------------------
This next figure gets used at a couple of points in the song:
Fig A
D----------------0---------0-----5-----------------
B----------------0---------0-----5-----------------
F----------------0---------0-----5-----------------
Eb-------------0---------0-------5-----------------
G--------5-7-8-------7-8---------5-----------------
C--------------------------------5-----------------
Here's how the song hangs together:
