Steady picking throughout and accenting the 2nd string D note and avoiding the 1st string.
G2 - 3x023x or 30023x (really Gsus2)
On the Em7 be sure and play the D note still on the 2nd string 3rd fret as that note is accentuated 
throughout this song in each chord. If some chords are beyond you just play the typical D, G, Em and you'll 
As a guy, I move this up to the key of G and you can then accent the G note (1st string 3rd fret) throughout
and the key works better for me as a male and it's always fun to play in G. You could also capo up 3 etc.
