This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since
U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have
included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to
experiment with your own chord voicings.

This song has a higher difficulty level due to the chords used.
I have attempted to keep the voicings as simple as possible, 
while still maintaining the tone and flavor of the song. The 7th
line of the Bridge contains a D#, Dsus and a D. Although I did
not include the barre chord voicings for the Dsus and D, I would
recommend using them here, since their relative position is
closer on the neck.
Dsus4     x57785
D        x57775

Some of the chords in the Main portion of the song are repeats
portion of the song and the voicing is not listed in the Main
Chords, please use the chord voicing from the Intro Chords.
