=====================================================================

This song's really pretty easy - the verses are all just C G and D
repeated quickly (I've put them on the first verse below - after that
it's just more of the same).

The recording of this song that I've got is from some radio session
or other, so I don't know how like the record it is, but on this one
he plays quite quickly, and it's all fairly loose (no fancy picking 
or anything - just strum, strum, strum).

Also on the D chords, he adds Dsus4 every now and then (it seems like
he plays it when he feels like, so I'd do the same if I were you).
