Attempt to capture chords to mimic the motion of the piano based on a live video from Warsaw:

UPDATE: The official video has now been released (14 April 2023) and I have made some updates to these chords
to match the official video:

Capo 1 to play along with the official video.
No capo to play along with the originally linked live video.
 
Chords with asterisks indicate single strums. The chord maps indicated below depict the strings I believe
you would pick to mimic the piano part. Where I have indicated Dsus2 and D he adds either the open high E
string or the second fret to the picking pattern as he moves to the next chord. The notes in parentheses
indicate a pluck of the open high E string as a transition between the Bm7 and the Asus4 that follows.

[Verse 1]
       D5                           Asus4
I miss knowing what you're thinking,
    A                Asus4
And hearing how your day has been,
Bm7            Asus4             A           Gsus2
  Do you think you could tell me everything, darling
    Asus4           A              D5
But leave out every part about him,
                 D5               Dsus2 Asus4
Right now you're probably by the ocean
      A                  Asus4*
While I’m still out here in the rain
Bm7          Asus4           A                Gsus2
  With every day that passes by since we’ve spoken
          Asus4           A           Bm7
It’s like Glasgow gets farther from LA
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
  (E)      Asus4      A       Gsus2   Gsus2
Maybe it’s s'posed to be this way
 
 
[Chorus]
          D5
But oh my love
          D5             Dsus2    D    Asus4
I want to say I miss the green in your eyes
           A                Asus4*            Bm7
And when I said we could be friends, guess I lied
          Asus4           A         G
I want to say I wish that you never left
    G5    Asus4        A            D5
Oh, but instead I only wish you the best
          D5              Dsus2 D       Asus4
I want to say without you every-thing's wrong
             A            Asus4*    Bm7
And you were everything I need all along
          A                          G
I want to say I wish that you never left
          Gm*                       D5
Oh, but instead I only wish you the best
 
 
[Verse 2]
     D5                 Dsus2 Asus4
Well I can’t help but notice
         A            Asus4*
You seem happier than ever now
Bm7    Asus4               A             Gsus2
  So I guess that I should tell you I’m sorry
   Asus4           A              Bm7
It seems I was the problem somehow,
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
   (E)   Asus4  A         Gsus2   Gsus2
 Maybe I only brought you down.
 
 
[Chorus]
          D5
But oh my love
          D5             Dsus2    D    Asus4
I want to say I miss the green in your eyes
           A                Asus4*            Bm7
And when I said we could be friends, guess I lied
          Asus4           A         G
I want to say I wish that you never left
    G5    Asus4        A            D5
Oh, but instead I only wish you the best
          D5              Dsus2 D       Asus4
I want to say without you every-thing's wrong
             A            Asus4*    Bm7
And you were everything I need all along
          Asus4           A         G
I want to say I wish that you never left
          Gm*
Oh, but instead I only wish you the best
 
 
[Bridge]
N.C.      D5
But oh my love,
   Dsus2 Asus4 A
Oh-whoah-oh-oh
      Bm7  A
Oh my love
         Gsus2 A
Oh-whoah-oh-oh-oh-oooh
D5*                                         D/A*
  Wish I could say it’s something I really mean
                                                Bm*
But I want you happy, whether or not it's with me
          Asus4*                     G*
I want to say I wish that you never left
N.C.                                D5
Oh, but instead I only wish you the best
 
 
[Outro]
          D5              Dsus2 D       Asus4
I want to say without you every-thing's wrong
             A            F#        Bm7
And you were everything I need all along
          Asus4           A         G
I want to say I wish that you never left
          Gm*                        D5*
Oh, but instead I only wish you the best
