I figured out 2 ways to play this song.
1. Capo on 4th fret (It's the best Version)
2. Standart Tuning

2) Standart Tuning ("Emergency Version")
You can use this Version if you don't have a capo, but to play it like it is
you have to play the Version above.

D-4---6---9---8-|--6---4---2---4---3-|
G-4-------9-----|--4---3---1---4---3-|
B---------------|--4---2---0---4---3-|
e---------------|--4---2---0---2---1-|
Verse:
Use power Chords:
B5, G#5, E'5, Bb5;
Chorus:
G#m, F#, E, B, Bb;
Bridge:
G#m, E;
Breaking Part = Chorus
