As with any song the fingerings are a bit subjective, but the notes are
accurate (i.e. the G on the B string could also be played on the E). Feel
free to experiment with other fingerings if they make you feel more
comfortable, but I'm notating my best guess as to how they're played
by Thomas. Great feel on this song.
