Notes:

*Dsus4 is this version:

||-X-||
||-3-||
||-0-||
||-0-||
||-0-||
||-X-||

*He sometimes goes back and forth between D and Dsus4 more than just once

*He's probably doing something up on the high e string during the D and Dsus4
 chords but I couldnt tell for sure

*During the verses when he plays E it goes like this:

||-0-0-0-0---0-0---||
||-0-0-0-0---0-0---||
||-1-1-1-1---1-1---||
||-2-2-2-2---2-2---||
||-2-2-0-2---2-2---||
||-0-0-0-0---0-0---||

*There's no Am7 part on the last chorus it just goes straight to the G and D.
 It's a little tricky but if you listen to the song you can figure it out.
