In live versions they don't play the Fmaj7 to G6 Coda
but, instead, after the instrumental verse,
they just end on an Amaj7
I would suggest using the voicings in the text
column numbers below.
Amaj7 = x06654 or x02120 A = x07650 or x02220
F#m11 = x44200 or 202100 B = x24442
Em9 = 020032 Fmaj7 = x33210 or xx3210
G = 355433 or 320033 G6 = x55430 or 320000
A4 = x07755 or x02230 N.C. = No chords
