Based on this live performance, but it should be identical to the studio version

G6    355430

[Intro]
G6   C/G   Fmaj7  x4
 
[Verse 1]
G6                       C/G           Fmaj7
  'Member when we were riding in your car
G6                    C/G                  Fmaj7
  Not thinkin' 'bout much, didn't get too far
G6         C/G                    Fmaj7
  Nineteen miles til the gas ran out
G6                   C/G                Fmaj7
  And I ain't never walked that far before
G6                C/G            Fmaj7
  It tastes like candy and cigarettes
G6            C/G     Fmaj7
  And at that point, hadn't tasted anything better yet
G6          C/G                 Fmaj7
  Got that love that can make a man
G6           C/G               Fmaj7
  Got those eyes, make a man forget
Fmaj7
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah-yeah
 
[Chorus]
G6         C/G             Fmaj7
  Say you love me all the way
Fmaj7                G6
Say that you love me too
                C/G                    Fmaj7
Say that you'll call me every single day
                       G6
Place a phone call for you
                 C/G                    Fmaj7
And I'll let you listen to my favorite tapes
                         G6
Playing my tapes right through
         C/G               Fmaj7
Say you love me all the way
Fmaj7
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah-yeah
 
 
[Instrumental]
G6   C/G   Fmaj7  x4
 
 
[Verse 2]
G6                      C/G           Fmaj7
  She said I'll try to help you if I can
G6                    C/G  Fmaj7
  And after all this time,   you're still the man
G6           C/G           Fmaj7
  We're just books upon a shelf
G6           C/G                Fmaj7
  Try to understand this if you can
G6             C/G                  Fmaj7
  And then she gives like a bubble bath
G6      C/G              Fmaj7
  Oh, I love it when you laugh
G6            C/G             Fmaj7
  Rain like pennies in a tin can
G6                  C/G              Fmaj7
  There's only one question left to ask
Fmaj7
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah-yeah
 
[Chorus]
G6         C/G             Fmaj7
  Do you love me all the way
Fmaj7                G6
Say that you love me too
                C/G                    Fmaj7
Say that you'll call me every single day
                       G6
Place a phone call for you
                 C/G                    Fmaj7
And I'll let you listen to my favorite tapes
                         G6
Playing my tapes right through
         C/G               Fmaj7
Say you love me all the way
 
 
G6         C/G             Fmaj7
  Say you love me all the way
Fmaj7                G6
Say that you love me too
                C/G                    Fmaj7
Say that you'll call me every single day
                       G6
Place a phone call for you
                 C/G                    Fmaj7
And I'll let you listen to my favorite tapes
                         G6
Playing my tapes right through
         C/G             Fmaj7
Say you love me all the way
 
 
[Outro]
G6   C/G   Fmaj7  x4

It sounds to me like theres only an fmaj7 in certain parts, like when they transition into the chorus. Otherwise it sounds like an F to me
