Notes on playing:

1) There's a bit of lovely guitar 
played after one of the choruses.
I have yet to work this bit out.


2) At the end of each line in the 
verse (after the Dsus2 chord is
played, there is a sliding up sound.
 This is where the Dsus2 shape
is slid up two frets, then two notes
 are picked (A, then G on the
G string) before returning to the Am
 chord, i.e.

   Dsus2         Am
----0------------0----------------
----3/5----------1----------------
----2/4----2--0--2----------------
----0------------2----------------
-----------------0----------------
----------------------------------

Thanks to Jeff for suggesting this 
slide bit.


3) The trickiest part is the picking
 of the Dsus2 chord in the chorus.
In the first chorus the picking 
pattern is shorter than in the 
subsequent
choruses. I.e. initially the chords 
are Dsus2 and then Dsus2/Ab. In a 
later
chorus, the descending pattern goes 
a stage further, i.e. Dsus2, 
Dsus2/Ab,
Dsus2/G.


4) The tab for this picking pattern 
is something like the following:

   Dsus2             Dsus2/Ab       
--------0---0------------0---0----
------3---3---3--------3---3---3--
----2-----------2----1------------
----0----------------0------------
----------------------------------
----------------------------------
    Dsus2/G
-|--------0---0---------| 
-|------3---3---3-------| 
-|1---0-----------0-----| 
-|----0-----------------| 
-|----------------------| 
-|----------------------| 

You can probably play quite a few 
variants on this simple pattern. The
important thing is the descending 
run on the G string.
