Goodbye Ruby Tuesday

[Riverwolf]

Hello again, oh yea Gods of the AGF,
My newest song to learn, mostly campfire type version-
Which to me means simple strumming, some bass notes etc...
Ruby Tuesday by the Rolling Stones.
My challenge is that I have no ear skills so don't tell me to go that direction, ok?
It seems that there is a ton of variations of chords for this song.
Almost all are real similar but slightly different in the use of the G, C, F chords.
I even found one lesson that used an Em?
I have checked all the sites that are normally recommended here. (I think)
Anybody point me a direction to a version that they use?
Is there really a site that is always accurate?

One of my favourite Stones songs. Here's the chords according to me:

verse
|Am - Am7/G - |F - G - |C - - - |C - - - |
|Am - Am7/G - |F - C - |G7 - - - |G7 - - - |
|Am - D7 - |G - - - |Am - D7 - |G - - - |
|C - - - |C - - - |G7(13) - - - |G7(sus4) - - - |

chorus
|C - G7 - |C* - - - |C - G - |C* - - - |
|C - G - |Bb(add9) - F - |G - C* - |G.......|

Coda: |Am - Am7/G - |Fmaj7 - - - |C(add9) - - - |C

Parentheses show added notes played by the flute (E and C respectively over the G7 chord, D on that last Cadd9), or by the vocal (C on the Bb chord).
There's also F notes in the vocal on beat 1 of the "C*" chords in the chorus (add4s).
It's optional whether you add these notes to your guitar chords, but it will obviously sound more authentic (and help the vocal) if you do.

Am7/G could be played as C/G (sounds fine), but there is an A note in the piano. It's definitely not a G chord (as one "correct" site claims)!

Yep, this is accurate.

Thanks. I think I checked about ten places and no two were exactly the same.
