Transcribed from the premiere of this wonderful song on Jools Holland's Later programme 
on BBC2, May 2012
That performance was accompanied by piano - no guitar -
so I hope the following represents a good arrangement for solo guitar.

Standard tuning, capo 1
All chords relative to open tuning
i.e. for Asus2 play x02200 which is in fact A#sus2
