Default tom petty G chord

I was checking out Learning To Fly by Tom Petty today and messing around learning it on acoustic. I have been learning for about 3 years now. Anyway its a very simple chord progression that I got down quickly until......I needed to do the little forefinger on off part that he does on the b string while chording a weird 3 finger g chord. I can make the chord but for some reason its a stretch for me and I cannot play that simple little progression cleanly anymore. middle, ring and pinky fingers making the chord which leaves the forefinger free to accentuate on the b string. I have been playing open chords since I started.......why is it so hard for me to play this chord? Guess it shows serious lacking of dexterity because it is really kicking my ***.
