Standard tuning, key of F# (/D#m).
I prefer to bar the B on the 7th fret so as to move easily to the D#m
Also, I like to play just the bass note for the bars in quieter sections.

The story behind the song

"Fake You Out" explores the struggle of revealing our true selves to others, touching on the difficult and often hidden subject of suicidal temptations. The song, from their 2013 album Vessel, was written by Tyler Joseph, who also co-produced the track. It's a techno-pop song with injections of synth-pop and rapping. Playing it means channeling that inner conflict and the vulnerability of being truly seen.
