So, I used the tabs by johnwika@gmail.com, 
transposed them so there was only one bar chord (F).
Enjoy!

With Capo on 4th fret

Verse 1:
             Am              Em
In the delta sun, down in Arkansas
          Dm      C              Am    G
It�s the great god bird with it�s alter call
                  Am                  Em
And the sewing machine, the industrial god
       Dm     C            Am     G
On the great bayou were they saw it fall
        Dm        C           Am     G
It�s the great god bird down in Arkansas
                   F   C               F    C
And the hunters beware, or the fishers fall
       F      Em   Dm   C        G             Dm
And paradise might close from its safe flight flawed
         F    Em   Dm   C         G (let ring)
It�s the great god bird through it all

Bridge:

Am, Em, Dm, C, Am, G

Verse 2:
                    Am                   Em
And the watchers beware, lest they see it fall
        Dm         C            Am      G
And paradise might laugh when at last it falls
                  F   C                F      C
And the sewing machine, the industrial god
         F     Em   Dm   C       G       Dm
It�s the great god bird with it�s alter call
              F     Em  Dm   C       G      Dm
Yes, it�s the great god bird with it�s alter call
              F     Em  Dm   C       G      
Yes, it�s the great god bird through it all.
