I tried the first section for fifteen minutes last night and came out
with something slightly different. Leo's guitar is tuned C#G#EBF#C#,
i.e. 1 1/2 steps down, as he usually does on a 12 strings, but chord
names (or rather hand positions) below are given relatively to standard
tuning.
Unfortunately I don't have a 12 string to test my own tab and feel whether
my fingering is correct.
