(The high e sounds muted for most of the song.)
When he plays the Em6 chord he adds and removes a finger on the G string.
This is hard to explain so I'll show you, as this is repeated throughout the song.

Game Shows Touch Our Lives
-----------------------------------------
Em6 C F/C (4x)
[Em6] Dug up a fifth of Hood River gin
[C] That stuff tastes like medicine
But I'll [F/C]take it[C]
It'll [Em6]do
On the [Em6]couch in the living room all day long
Mus[C]ic on the television playing our song
I'm in the mo[F/C]od[C]
The mood for [Em6]you
Em6 C F (2x)
[Em6] Turn the volume up real high
Al[C]l of that money look at it fly
And you sm[F/C]oking[C] like a chimney[Em6]
[Em6]Shadows crawled across the living room's length
I[C] held onto you with a desperate strength
With eve[F/C]rything[C] with everything i[Em6]n me
And I h[D]anded you a drink of a lo[C]vely little thing
On [Em6]which our survival depends
[D]People say friends don't dest[C]roy one another
What do they know about fr[D]iends?
Em6 C F/C (4x)
[Em6]Thunderclouds forming cream white moon
Ev[C]erything's going to be okay soon
Maybe tom[F/C]orrow[C]
Maybe the [Em6]next day
[Em6]Carried you up the stairs that night
All of [C]this could be yours if the price is right
I heard [F/C]cars headed down to ob[C]livion
Up on the exp[Em6]ressway
[D]Your drunken kisses as light as the air
Maybe e[C]verything that falls down eventually r[Em6]ises
[D]Our house sinking into disrepair
Ah but lo[C]ok at this showroom filled with fabulous pri[Em6]zes
[Em6]
[Em6] [C] [F/C]
