OK, first up, Arlo's website has the 'official' chords on it.

But speaking as a rank novice, I found the D minor to B flat chord switch was a 
tad tricky which was a shame as this song's a real crowd pleaser!

Anyway, I found a way to cheat a bit and make the whole thing more novice friendly 
- transpose the chords down 5 semitones and capo it to the 5th fret to get it back 
into key.  It makes the chords way easier to play!
