---Standard tuning
No capo
---Set tempo on 0.8
---The song consists of only 3 chords : F, Am and G.
I guess it is not necessary to explain the chords any further.
---Almost throughout the entire song he plays this riff, again and again:
F F
e|-------------------------|-------------------------|
B|------------------1------|------------------1------|
G|----2-------0h2------2---|----2-------0h2------2---|

E|-------------------------|-3-------3--3---3------3-|
---In live versions he leaves out the first hammer-on in the Am-sequence. He plays
a simple -0- there instead.
---At the end of each part of the song(verse, chorus) he plays the alternative
G (further only G*)instead of the usual G-sequence and makes a short pause at the end
of it.
G* (let it ring)

INTRO_____________________________________________
---In some versions he starts singing the verse straightaway, in others he plays
the whole riff twice for the INTRO.
VERSE 1___________________________________________
F F Am G
Oh if you're losing sleep...
F F Am G
Oh if you're losing sleep, scared of shadows.
F F
Oh see it's just a chair,
Am G
see the clothes hang there.
F F Am G*
Oh don't go losing sleep, scared of shadows.
CHORUS____________________________________________
(pause) F F Am G
Oh don't feel bad. Well I never
F F Am G
have, since I got
F F Am G
you my Emmy-
F F Am G*
lou
VERSE 2___________________________________________
You wear your socks to bed.
You wear your socks to bed, that's what I do.
Oh c'mon sleepyhead, get yourself to bed.
Don't go losin', oh, the nighttime.
CHORUS____________________________________________
Oh don't feel bad.
Well I never have, since I got you, my Emmylou.
---From this part on, he strums the same chords.

--- The strumming pattern is :
DD UDU DDU UDU
---Do all the hammer-ons on the 4th Down. He sometimes plays the Am differently,
releasing all the strings for the last DU.

B|--1-------0-|
G|--2-------0-|
D|--2--0h2--0-|
A|--0-------0-|
E|--X-------X-|
BRIDGE__________________________________________
---In the bridge he plays F sequence without hammer-ons and with a strumming pattern:
DD UDU. He repeats the pattern 4 times, then he proceeds to Am and G that are played
as I described before. In the rest of the song he plays the F with the hammer-ons
and with the same pattern as the other chords.
F Am G
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
---Do the same with the other three:
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
---Do one additional down-stroke at the end and then make a short pause(like in G*)
CHORUS__________________________________________
F F Am G
Oh don't feel
F F Am G
bad. Well I never
F F Am G
have. Now that I've got
F F Am G
you. My Emmy-
F F Am G
lou. No don't feel
---Do the same again.
No don't feel bad.
Well I never have, now that I've got you, my Emmylou.
---Aaaand, that's the whole song. It is a great piece and I hope I did it justice.
Have a nice day :)

[Verse 1:]
Oh if you're losing sleep...
Oh if you're losing sleep, scared of shadows.
See it's just a chair, see the clothes hang there.
Oh don't go losing sleep, scared of shadows.
[Chorus:]
Oh don't feel bad.
I never have, since I got you, my Emmylou.
[Verse 2:]
You wear your socks to bed.
You wear your socks to bed, that's what I do.
Oh c'mon sleepyhead, get yourself to bed.
Don't go losin', oh, the nighttime.
[Chorus:]
Oh, don't feel bad.
I never have, since I got you, my Emmylou.
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
You are loved, you are loved, you are loved.
[Chorus:]
Oh now, don't feel bad.
Well I never have.
Now that I've got you, my Emmylou.
No don't feel bad.
Well I never have, now that I've got you, my Emmylou.
