This song looks fun to play on guitar. I placed the chords where I think they 
should belong. The only chords that I couldn't figure out were either if he was 
playing D/F# or Em7 where you see the D/F# chords below. The other chords are correct.
Tuning: Capo on 3rd Fret
Introduction : G x4 (Hammer on and off on Gstring 2nd Fret)
Verse:
GChances are when said and done
D/F#Who'll be the lucky ones
                     Cadd9  G(intro)

GThough you say I could be your answer
D/F#Nothing lasts forever
                      Cadd9  D(Dsus2,Dsus4)
No matter how it feels today
Chorus:
     Cadd9         G  D(Dsus2,Dsus4)
