Note: I arranged this a little differently than Joco. After seeing the Denver 2009 perfomance on youtube, it looks like he plays most of the song around 5th position, but when I learned it by ear, this is what seemed easiest to me.
The basic structure of the song is: Intro Verse Chorus Intro Verse Chorus Solo Intro Verse Chorus Intro Except that the intro does not repeat when played between verses. The song fades out with the intro, but I usually play it a couple times and then end with the Dmaj7. Note that the transition between the A7 and A6 is facilitated by keeping the 2nd and 4th strings held down and sliding up from the 2nd to 7th fret.
