#1: The rhythm is a straight 6/8 throughout, but sometimes they play it
    like a 3/4. The accents are as follows (somehow. Listen to the song
    and you'll figure it out):

Verse:
ONE two three FOUR five six  [3x and then:]  ONE two THREE four FIVE six
|Am7 . . . . . |Bm7 . . . . . |Em7 . . . . .|Em7 . Bm7 . Bbm7 .|

Chorus:
|Em . . . . . |G/H . C6/g . . .|D . . . . . |Dsus . . D . . |

#2: The voicing is for playing it with a single (acoustic) guitar. If you
have a band, however, you don't have to play all the notes yourself ;-)
