Frank Chords - Lemon Twigs

Great song, it’s really a piano song, and I think I might post a YouTube tutorial for this song on piano.
But here are the chords (there are many).

Note: * Bb works as well as Gm7 for each instance with the *. In the actual recording,
I believe they play it with the Bb and throw in the 6th somewhere,
but I personally prefer to play with the 6th as the root note instead, making it a Gm7.
It’s a little more jazzy this way. The exception is for the final verse,
which doesn’t really sound right with a Gm7.

Enjoy!

[Verse]
Fmaj7          Gm7*           Am7      Dm D
Where are your eyes in this lonesome hallway?
Gm7          C7       F                 E/G# E7/G#    Gm7  C7
Why do they hide from me? I'll take the long way
Fmaj7   Gm7          Am7       Dm D
Only a fool end up tagged and buried
Cm7        C7        F          E/G# E7/G#  Gm7 C7
Dead in a pool of compromise, so empty

[Chorus]
Bb           A             Dm                G7
If I were a wise man I'd ignore the pile of tears
        F         Cm7
But I'm not, I'm afraid
       Bb           Eb    Dmaj7  Dm7  G7 C C7
Don't hurt me, I'm just a child

[Verse]
Fmaj7         Gm7*       Am7      Dm  D
Spare me the games, I can do without them
Gm7              C7              F            E/G# E7/G#
"What are their names?", as you try to figure out them
Fmaj7         Gm7*    Am7        Dm D
When will you see that I am not lying?
Gm7       C7            F        E/G# E7/G#  Gm C7
And as I read I think, "am I even trying?"

[Chorus]
Bb           A             Dm                 G7
If I stood before you and took joy in how we dance
         F              Cm7       Bb           Eb    Bbm/F
I would play and would stay in suspicion just like a child

[Verse]
Fmaj7    Bb            Am7         Dm  D
Where is my lover, the one who can see me
Gm7          C7          F         E/G# E7/G#  Gm7  C7
When did my light get distorted and greedy?

[Chorus]
Bb           A          Dm          G7
If I were a tyrant or destroyer of love
N.C.    F           Cm7       Bb
I would not destroy you, my darling
               Eb  Fmaj7
You're not alone
