There are a couple of weird chords, so here are the shapes for them:

       

e|-2-------2--
B|-3-------0--
G|-0-------2--
D|-0-------0--
A|-2-------0--
E|---------2--

Also, for the first two lines of each verse it seems like there's a hammer on when going to Bm on the A string

[Intro]

For this I keep my middle and ring fingers on the e and B strings and strum while hitting the other notes,
listen to the song to figure out the rhythm
