Merry Go Round
There’s a tab of this online that seems pretty much accurate. I’ve just tweaked a few chord voicings.
Open E tuning
E B E G# B E
C#m7
9.9.0.8.0.7
B6/9
7.7.0.5.0.4
A6/9
5.5.0.3.0.2
(These are some big chords. If you have trouble, I would say leave off the high notes. They are kind of hard to hear anyway.)
E
0.0.0.3.0.0
Asus2
5.5.0.3.0.0
G#m(#5)
4.4.0.3.0.0
C#m7(2)
9.9.0.8.0.0
F#7sus4
x.7.6.8.0.0
x.7.6.7.0.0
x.7.6.5.0.0
(Walk the notes down and back up on the G string.)
A
5.5.5.8.x.x
5.5.5.7.x.x
5.5.5.5.x.x
(Ditto)
Bm11
7.7.5.6.0.0
E lick (something he does a lot live)

Opening/Chorus
C#m7 — B6/9 — A6/9
B6/9 — A 6/9
C#m7 — B6/9 — A6/9
A6/9 — E
{Hush was the first word you were taught}
E — Asus2
He does this little lick between the chords.

{And they watched . . .}

G#m(#5) — C#m7
{To watch the merry go around}
F#7sus4 — A — E w/lick
Another verse.
The second and third times through, on the A above, there’s a second guitar that does this:

Chorus.

Chorus.
Bridge
{And everybody thinks she’s sick}
Bm11 — Asus2
{She’s got two worlds she can pick}
Bm11 — Asus2
While they draw out the Asus2 at the end of the bridge, he plays around with these three octaves and the open strings.
