I'm not sure what the proper names of the chords are, but, they
are all in a standard, 1st positon "G" shape, and then moved
around.  I'm gonna name them by their note on the E-String.

Here are the chords used:

    (G)    (F#)   (Bb)   (A)    (C)    (D)   (Eb)   (G*)

e|---3------2------6------5------8-----10-----11-----15----->
b|---3------2------6------5------8-----10-----11-----15----->
g|---0------0------0------0------0------0------0------0----->
d|---0------0------0------0------0------0------0------0----->
a|---2------1------5------4------7------9-----10-----14----->
e|---3------2------6------5------8-----10-----11-----15----->

You'll have to listen to the song for the strumming pattern...
It would be too much to try and write all that out.
