Ryan Adams - Why Do They Leave Chords

Ryan Adams
Why Do They Leave

I love this song and I couldnt believe it wasnt already up, so I had a go... Im sure 
not 100% but it sounds good on acoustic.
Works best with a mixture of stumming and picking,
but listen to the song and play it how you like.
Any alterations, comments or suggestions welcome :)
