The chords for this lovely song as played at several Flicker Sessions.
The following video shows the chords played very well especially in the later parts:

Here's a good tutorial video (not mine):

I have simplified some and adjusted a bit for ease of play and what I think sounds best playing this solo.
Don't be turned off by the "weird" chords if you're a beginner - Gadd11 and Fmaj7 are played like a
standard open C chord, except moving your fingers on the 2nd and 3rd fret one string up/down respectively,
which makes the transitions very easy. For C/G, put an additional finger on the 1st string 3rd fret.
For the intro, the last part of the chorus and the bridge(whenever you have the Am Gadd11 C F
chord sequence), you can use the following finger picking pattern:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-0h1---------3---------5---------5-------1---------1---------1---------1---------|
G|-------0---------0---------0---------0-------2---------2---------2---------2-----|
D|-----2---2-----0---0-----0---0-----0-------3---3-----3---3-----3---3-----3--(3)--|
A|-0-----------2---------3---------3-----------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------1---------1---------1---------1---------|
[Intro]
Am Gadd11 C F
Am Gadd11 C F
[Verse 1]
When you C/Gfeel your love's been taken
When you Emknow there's something missing
In the Amdark, we're Gadd11barely hangin' Fmaj7on
Then you C/Grest your head upon my chest
And you Emfeel like there ain't nothing left
So I'm Amafraid that Gadd11what we had is Fmaj7gone
[Chorus]
Then I think of the Fstart
And it echCoes a spark
And I reAmmember the Gadd11magic eClectriciFmaj7ty
Then I look in my Fheart
There's a light Cin the dark
Still a Amflicker of Gadd11hope that you Cfirst gave to Fmaj7me
And I wanna Dmkeep
Please don't AmleaGadd11ve C F
Please don't AmleaGadd11ve C F
[Verse 2]
When you C/Glay there and you're sleeping
Hear the Empatterns of your breathing
And I Amtell you things you've Gadd11never heard beFmaj7fore
Asking C/Gquestions to the ceiling
Never Emknowing what you're thinking
'Cause I'm Amafraid that Gadd11what we had is Fmaj7gone
[Chorus]
Then I think of the Fstart
And it echCoes a spark
And I reAmmember the Gadd11magic eClectriciFmaj7ty
Then I look in my Fheart
There's a light Cin the dark
Still a Amflicker of Gadd11hope that you Cfirst gave to Fmaj7me
And I wanna Dmkeep
Please don't AmleaGadd11ve C F
Please don't AmleaGadd11ve C F
[Bridge]
And AmI Gadd11want Cthis to Fpass
And AmI Gadd11hope Cthis won't Flast
Last tooDm long
[Chorus]
Then I think of the Fstart
And it echCoes a spark
And I reAmmember the Gadd11magic eClectriciFmaj7ty
Then I look in my Fheart
There's a light Cin the dark
Still a Amflicker of Gadd11hope that you Cfirst gave to Fmaj7me
And I wanna Dmkeep
Please don't AmleaGadd11ve C F
Please don't AmleaGadd11ve C F
