This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since
U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have
included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to
experiment with your own chord voicings. 

In order to play the D/G, you may need to use your thumb to fret
the G on the 6th string, 3rd fret.
