If these chords are too difficult for Veres 5 and final Chorus you can quickly shift
your Capo to the 2nd fret and play the chords from the previous veres and chorus'

Good one. I think the the first oooh on the chorus is a Dma7 and I'm think he's actually singing the c# and the doodoodoo sounds quite good as an A6 for some reason

Spot on tab! Thank you, also, for the little trick of quickly sliding the capo up one fret to finish things off with verses 5 & 6 (the Bbsus4 is a pinky stretcher!). Thank you for sharing and your time put into this (wow, just a few hrs short of exactly 2 yrs since the comment posting!)
