I watched him play this during a live show on YouTube, here are the chords he
uses (and the position on the neck he uses for the chords.  A chord 
without a * pretty much means the chord is played at a higher position on the
neck, and a chord with a * indicates that the chord is played lower on the 
neck, or using an open chord...hope that's not too confusing)
