As I understand it, for a song played on the guitar in D you would use an harmonica in G.

It is correct to use a G harp with this song.

But, it is very important to tune the low E string (6th string) down to D.

Check any of the usual websites to find the tabs and chords (911.com, chordie.com, etc.)

Interesting -- so, the general principle: the guitar key is a 5th from the harp key (or, conversely, the harp key is the 4th reatlive to the guitar key). Anyone with insight as to why you wouldn't use a G harp for a song in G instead?

We are right at the edge of my knowledge/understanding on this topic, but I believe that it has something to do with which position on the harmonica you play the song. To play along with a song in D, playing a G harmonica means playing the harmonica at the second position rather than in first position as you would with a D harmonica. I believe that this will involve playing more 'suck' notes - for want of a better word - and therefore allow the player more tone/note control. I'm sure that someone will correct me if I'm wrong!
