This is one of my favorite songs to sing and play on the acoustic.
It's the Coldplay bside Help Is Round The Corner!
Normally this song is in open C# tuning just like God Put A Smile Upon Your Face, 
but I figured out a way to get almost the exact same results with a capo and
tuning your E down to C#.
Ok so first tune your low E to C#.
Now grab your capo and put it on reverse,
so that the first five EBGDA strings are capo'd on the first fret.
Make sure you have the low C# uncapo'd and that everything rings out clearly without buzzing.
Notes are NOT tabbed relative to the capo!
So 1's on the first 5 strings are opens on the capo. 
Now here are the chords!
 E|--1--------1--------1--------1--------1-------x--------|
 B|--2--------2--------2--------2--------2-------6--------|
 G|--1--------3--------1--------3--------3-------6--------|

Stuck here, in the middle of nowhere
       C#                    C#6
With a headache, and a heavy heart
      C#                      C#6
Well, nothing was going quite right here
        C#                     C#6

And I'm sat here, licking my wounds
        C#                               C#6
And I'm shattered, but it really doesn't matter
         C#                      C#6
Cause my rescue is gonna be here soon

                         /          
That help is just around the corner for us
I'd say it's pretty accurate, although I had to compromise a bit with the C#/G# chord,
because the actual chord in this tuning would be impossible to play. :(
