The song is done in the key of "A".  I will teach it in the key of "G" then you can put your capo on the second fret and use all of the same chord positions. From there you will be set to go.  
To the right are some chords that you will use throughout the song.  The numbers below are the picking order that are most likely to go with that chord.  Try them and see what happens.  This song uses an acoustic guitar with a stiff straight pick.
The arrangement below is a section in the song that was hard to explain so I set it up note for note.  The words under the chords are the words as they correspond to the chords.  This does not complete the song but there is enough here to piece it all together.  Good Luck!  Warren Yates
