Well, here's the best response I can think of to:

Notes: 1) I assume you've heard the song.
    2) No capo - all chords are first position open.
    3) For the C majorC chords during the bridge, use a standard 1st
    position C majorC but play the G+G on the high E MajorE string with the pinky so
    that the voicing moves more like the slide guitar on the album.
    4) I finger the F#7b9F#7b9 lick at the end of Chorus I like this:
    XX____             _XOOO_
    |||||| first fret       ||||||
    ------             ------
    ||1111          ----> ||||||  wrapping the thumb
    ------             ------  makes it much easier
    |||2|3 (lift up '3'...)    Tx|||3  to grab the G+G chord...
    ------             ------  (x = mute ; O = open)

    5) The G->G/F#->Em and D(sus) stuff is very typical of Penn...

I wish I had time to type in all the lovely twiddles and chord patterns,
but this is the best I can do and still have a job... If you've heard
the song, it'll be easy to figure out those details...
