He plays it on a 12-string guitar, but you can of course play it on a
'normal' one, too. A and Em are barchords. Another video of him playing is
here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vxLqScj_1FiA (You can see the chord-
progression a bit better there.) It should be pretty accurate even though
I'm not 100% sure about the last bridge, but you can probably figure it out
by playing. Have fun!
