then you play C and he hammers the 2nd fret D string and then plays the open G like this:

E|--------0--------------|
B|--------1--------------|
G|--------0---------0----|
D|--------2---0h2--------|
A|----3---3--------------|
E|--------x--------------|

Then the song essentially goes like this:


Fig1         C
Them purple shadows fall across

          Em
And they soften everything they touch

          F          G        Am     G
And they give me-e a place to hide

Fig1    C
And the moonlight all around

                Em
Surely going to wash these troubles down

    F              G               Am     G
And cool the awful burning-ness of love

                F
Talkin bout the burning-ness

         G                    Am
Yeah the burning-ness, oh the burning-ness

         F
Yeah the burning-ness

                            G               C       G
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love


Then it's just the same for the rest of the song apart from the very last part where he 
swaps the C for an E minor then goes back to how it's played in the rest like this:

                            G               Em   F
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love ooooh ooooh

                            G               C       G
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love

Here are the rest of the lyrics:

I hear your echo on the run
And them tears will start to come
They will dry me u-up and I’ll simply blow away

But while I’m blowin in the wind
Surely gonna feel again your soft skin
And remember-er the awful burning-ness of love
Talkin bout the burning-ness
Yeah the burning-ness, oh the burning-ness
Yeah the burning-ness
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love

And the moonlight all around
Surely going to wash these troubles down
And cool the awful burning-ness of love
Talkin bout the burning-ness
Yeah the burning-ness, oh the burning-ness
Yeah the burning-ness
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love
