I believe the electric guitar in the song is playing some of the chords
higher, (especially the F# and C#), so transpose to your liking.
As you can see above, most of the song is played near the middle of
the guitar, so try to avoid playing low transpositions like A#m = [x13321].
Here are some other suggestions that sound right, but could get painful if
you're trying with an acoustic:
F#: 9-9-11-11-11-9
C#: 9-11-11-10-9-9
