Now I realise the fact that the recording is piano only, so this is my 
personal interpretation which I find works well when performing it. It
sounds pretty close for the most part... But in the "My love goes free" 
part, I play C/Am7 which I think he just stays on Am7 after the first 
switch and ends on C, but it sounds good when performing so I hope you 
enjoy.
Oh and if you have a correction please post it and I'll check it out 
and fix it up when I get the chance. Cheers!
Note: The D# chord can be played a few different ways, I'm simply putting
      my preference to what I find easiest.
