I think this version is really close to how Matthew plays this song when he is doing an acoustic version.
I figured it out by watching him play in that video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNfKWDsU6QU
There are some extra notes that I didn't mention, (hammer ons) you can easily figure them out by yourself.

[Intro]
Cmaj7sus2  Dsus4
 
[Verse 1]
                     G
And this is how it starts
                                             Cmaj7sus2        Dsus4
You take your shoes off in the back of my van
                        G
My shirt looks so good
                                     Cmaj7sus2       Dsus4
When it's just hanging off your back
          G
She said use your hands and my spare time
           Dsus4                            Em7
We've got one thing in common it's this tongue of mine
         Cadd9                                 Dsus4
She said she's got a boyfriend anyway
 
[Verse 2]
G
There's only minutes before I drop you off
                                       Cmaj7sus2
And all we seem to do it talk about sex
 
She's got a boyfriend anyway
            Dsus4
She's got a boyfriend anyway
   G
I love your friend when I saw his film
                         Dsus4                             Cadd9
He's got a funny face but I like that because he still looks cool
 
She's got a boyfriend anyway
      Dsus4
She's got a boyfriend anyway
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9                              Dsus2
Now we are on the bed in my room
 
And I'm about to fill his shoes
     Em7
But you say no
Dsus4
You say no
Em7                      Dsus4
Does he take care of you
           D#dim
Or could I easily fill his shoes
Em7     Dsus4
You say no
Cadd9      Dsus4
You say no
 
[Interlude]
Cadd9 Dsus4
 
[Verse 3]
G                                  Dsus4
And now we're just outside of town
             Em7               Cadd9
And you're making your way down
She's got a boyfriend anyway
            Dsus4
She's got a boyfriend anyway
G
And I'm not trying to stop you love
               Dsus4              Em7                       Cadd9
But if we're gonna do anything we might as well just ....
 
She's got a boyfriend anyway
            Dsus4
She's got a boyfriend anyway
 
G                                     Dsus4
You've got your tongue pierced anyway
            Em7             Cadd9
You in your hightops anyway
                                     Dsus4
You in your skinny jeans anyway
G                               Dsus4
You and your fit friends anyway
               Em7            Cadd9
I'd take them all out any day
They've all got back combs anyway
                 Dsus4               G
You've all got boyfriends anyway
