 Basically an E minor chord changing to E minor7 on the third strum, 
 just lift your pinky off the G string. Repeat the above as often as 
 necessary.

 Its pretty much the same for the next verse.
 In the descending bassline (D - C# - B) bit of the "They won't be 
 satisfied" line it is something like this (I think there is a picking 
 pattern here using fingers):
 
     E7   E6    E      
 E|--0----0-----0----
 B|--3----0-----0----
 G|--4----1-----1----
 D|--6----2-----2----
 A|--5----4-----2----
