Notes:

On the pre chorus the Em9 looks like this
e|-------3-------------------|
B|------3--------------------|
G|---------------------------|
D|-----2---------------------|
A|----2----------------------|
E|---------------------------|

When Mark plays his D he add his thumb on the top E string, and towards the end of while 
he's playing the Cadd9 looks like this.\

e|---------------------------|
B|------3--------------------|
G|--------4------------------|
D|-----2---------------------|
A|----3----------------------|
E|---------------------------|

Strumming is all down strokes until the end where they sing the final part when they 
sing "All these Times Are Hard.........." They use a mixture of up and down strokes. Just 
watch Mark play that part and you should be able to work it out.
