I'll see what I can do to make it more than probably. Doubling the fifth makes way more sense than chord with 5 roots and a fifth. It's been dabated endlessly but it's probably EBEEBE. what's stated can not be relied up as being accurate, especially if you are a player trying figure the song out. so what they say the tuning is is most likely the tuning a beginning player could use and in no way represents how stills tuned his guitar in that session. I've owned many that were totally worthless efforts to make something for people that just picked a guitar up yesterday play something that remotely sounds like the song. The footnote for the tuning uses the same source twice, then using a link to a page that mentions bruce palmer's tuning, which is not proof that's the tuning on the recording.
