As you see you play the Barre’ chords with open BE- strings. I don’t know if the chords have other name.
It’s a little bit difficult to play the E and ESUS4 chords like Shawn do. Listen to the song and you figure it out.
This way to play the song is close to the original.

INTRO:
Play E /ESUS4 B

E /ESUS4
on a mantle made of oakwood
E /ESUS4
there`s a photograph from my childhood
E B
it was taken in the desert early light
E /ESUS4
i look a lot like a leprechaun
E /ESUS4
with a mexican vest and a red hippie hat on
B D B
maracas in my left hand, stick in my right
E F D E /ESUS4
there are canyons there are caverns
E F D B
there are boarder roadside taverns
Cm B ASUS2 E E /ESUS4 B
i am held captive by the big blue sky above me
E /ESUS4
she naps with the tv on
E /ESUS4
i smell the june cut grass from my pappy`s lawn
E /ESUS4 B
i play alone in the little room upstairs
E /ESUS4
there are lincoln logs and cookie tins
E /ESUS4
colored blocks and wars to win
E /ESUS4 B D B
i draw and i dream and beat my drums up there
E F D E /ESUS4
there are circus lights and maple leaves
E F D B
there are daffodils and dogwood trees
Cm B ASUS2 E
i am held captive by the big blue sky above me


Between here play the following chords (fingerplay):

EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE
4xx400 5xx400 7xx800 2X and play B at last

E /ESUS4
now the coffee`s strong
E /ESUS4
and the fruit`s all wrong
E /ESUS4 B
and my wakeup call`s for somebody else
E /ESUS4
and the tv`s hoax and neurosis jokes
B
always keep my laughing at myself
D B
and i laugh a lot that`s what i do
D B
and i learn the things i never knew
E F D E /ESUS4
and i see canyons i see caverns
E F D B
i see border roadside taverns
Cm B ASUS2 E
and i am held captive by the big blue sky above me
E B ASUS2 E
i am held captive only by the big blue sky
E B ASUS2 E ASUS2 B E and fade out
i am held captive by the big blue sky above me
