Chords used by John (you can play the full notes, it doesn't matter, but i think it 
better this way):

F#m   2x422x
F     1x3213
C     x32013

OBS : To the big E string John uses the tong to hold the note or kill it (x).It's cool, 
more pratical.

OBS2: The parts with A : you can switch the freets played in the B string, 0, 2 or 3 
usual) and on the G string too, 2 (usual) or 4.

OBS3: The parts with D/F# : you can switch the freets played in the B string, 0, 2 or 3 
usual).

Make yourself comfortable to choose the combinations you like, John himself doesn't have 
pattern.
