This is missing the all-important bridge, where the chords change.
The walk down in the end of the bridge sounds like G#m-F#-E-F# (original key)
+11

In original key the chords are:
Db-, Ab-, Eb7(b9), Ab- |
Bridge:
Emaj7, Eb7b9, Ab-7, Ab-7 G7sharp11 Gb-7 F7sharp11, Emaj7, Eb7/G, Ab-7, Gb-7 Eb7/G...
Then the bridge is very cool, the fourth bar does a chromatic walk down of what in jazz would be known as a 3,6,2,5, but using tritone substitution, which ends up giving you the numerical 3,b3,2,b2 (with E as your root). I can't quite work out what extensions are on the altered chords but I usually use 7sharp11 chords for these situations.
Then it continues with the usual chords. This might not be 100% but it's a nice juicy jazz flavour to add.

. Sorry but chords are way off the lyrics.. Maybe line them up a little better so it makes sense
