The chords for the verses are right. In the chorus when you go to the F - C - G part it is good to have the note G riding through the whole passage. C and G have it anyway but add the 9th to the F chord too (i.e. G)
But the bridge is different than it is in that link.
Em
Feel so humble with
D
you tonight
C
Just sitting in front of the
G
fire
Bb
see you face dancing in the flame
Bb
Feel your mouth kissing me again

What a beautiful buzz

What a beautiful
D

What a beautiful
C

What a beautiful
G

Repeat the D-C-G part 2 more times before going into the
C
Yes I am nitty gritty...

The reason I had to space it so weird is because once you post it with the chords spaced properly they always slide all to the beginning of the line.

Those are the basic chords but obviously Nicky is all over the place on the song. I have never seen sheet music for the runs he does. But they sound pretty standard scales. Nicky (like Mick Taylor) had this great gift of using very straight notes and applying them so beautiful. Plus both those guys were so technically clean that they make listening to them always nice.
