Well, here's the best response I can think of to:

Notes: 1) I assume you've heard the song.
       2) No capo - all chords are first position open.
       3) For the C chords during the bridge, use a standard 1st
       position C but play the G on the high E string with the pinky so
       that the voicing moves more like the slide guitar on the album.
       4) I finger the F#7b9 lick at the end of Chorus I like this:
       XX____                         _XOOO_
       |||||| first fret              ||||||
       ------                         ------
       ||1111                   ----> ||||||   wrapping the thumb
       ------                         ------   makes it much easier
       |||2|3 (lift up '3'...)        Tx|||3   to grab the G chord...
       ------                         ------   (x = mute ; O = open)

       5) The G->G/F#->Em and D(sus) stuff is very typical of Penn...

I wish I had time to type in all the lovely twiddles and chord patterns,
but this is the best I can do and still have a job...  If you've heard 
the song, it'll be easy to figure out those details...
