I believe the B is supposed to be a B7, and try G/C instead of G7. That seems to work better. Also, The chord changes on the second verse are a bit off; you're supposed to switch to C on "tired" and G/C on "on" (this is actually the third verse in the full song, but I take it you're sourcing from the "Right Here and Now" documentary because their acoustic performance there also skips the second verse).
