Besides it's very easy (at least the rhythm guitar, singing simutaneously might be more difficult)! The G is played at the 3rd fret and you slide into the F played at the first fret, everytime you have a G followed by an F. You really have to listen to the CD for the rhythm of the voice. I thought about putting the chords right where they are sung, but somehow this made the appearance of the file even worse, so I aligned them to the words, which is not exactly the way they are sung, but much easier to visualize. You'll get it anyway, I guess.
