Use bar chords for F + G but lift your finger to leave the high E + B strings open.
During Am chords, he uses hammer-ons and pull-offs on the B and G string and also e string 3rd fret:
Making Am7 and Asus2 chords. He also sometimes jumps to Em for one strum so listen out.
During C chords, he does the same on e string 3rd fret
Listen through and play around with those or just make it up for some added flavour

Verse
"If you're so funny, why are you
on your
own tonight?"
"And if you're so clever, why are you
on your
own tonight?"
"And if you're so very entertaining, why are you
on your
own tonight?"
"And if you're so very good looking, why do you
sleep a
lone tonight?"
I
know,
because tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your
own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they are in each other's arms

It takes
