both live and on the album. Below is written as though played in G at the nut.

Just keep that tab going throughout the song (except the bridge).

Heavy on the bass strings

X32033 - Cadd2
X32032 - C(b5)add2 - 'flattened fifth'
XX0233 - Dsus4
XX0232 - D
022033 - Em7
022033 - Em7add2
320033 - G
022100 - E
022200 - Esus4

The trick is to fret the B and e strings 'the wrong way round' (i.e. pinky on
B string, 3rd finger on e string) so you can slide down to the second fret on
the e string for the last beat in each bar (marked * above).

e.g. for a Cadd2 going to C(b5)add2 (second bar)

I think that's about it, any comments (or better chord names!) welcome.
