Si bien este tema, la banda Beirut lo toca con ukelele, encontré una excelente adaptación para guitarra acá, lugar del cual proviene el resto del contenido de este post.
Update: Para los que, como mi amigo Humitos, quieren ver y escuchar el original, agrego un videíto de Youtube:

Note for Guitarists
The “low” string on a ukulele is higher than the next two subsequent strings. So, while the strings go G C E A, the relative pitches (1 being low, 4 being high) are 3 1 2 4. To replicate the sound, you would have to replace your D string with something much thinner (i.e. whatever you use for your high E) and tune it up an octave.
