Notes:
D/G can be played several different ways. For people with a wide hand-span the open chord version is probably OK, but if you find this a little difficult, the mini-barre version is easier to play.
It is much easier to play Em11 by barring the first 5 strings with the 1st finger and playing a mini-barre with the second finger on the 1st and 2nd string - 3rd fret. This has no effect on the chord as they are covered by the mini-barre... simply an easier way to play the chord.
The song has the same 4-chord turnaround throughout the entire song. If you are a beginner, make sure you can play all 4 chords with ease as the changes are quite rapid especially between the Bm7 and Em11.
There are several ways to play Em11, but I have chosen this voicing as it moves nicely from the Bm7 to the Em11. Both chords barre the second fret with only slight changes to the other fingers. You may prefer to use the 3rd finger for the mini-barre intead of the second... whatever is comfortable for you.
