Here are the chords for this song as closely as I could figure them out. 
He played it somewhat differently on Saturday Night Live, so I'm 
including what I hear on the CD, but also noting where he seemed to do 
things differently.  Also take note of a weird chord that I don't know 
the name of that I've marked with asterisks and included a crude tab of 
how it is played.
