This is the way I play it. The verse is similar to the way David does it, but the
chorus is quite different.
Standard tuning, no capo.
Some quick notes on the chords:
B7* is just another way to play the B7 that makes it easier in same cases.
I use B7* in the verses, except during the suspension at the end.
During the chorus, use the second set of "chorus" chords.

VERSE:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/david_choi/lucky_guy_crd_ver_3.html ]
E F#m7 G#m7 B7 E
It's been so long since I've met someone
A E B7sus B7
That makes me feel this way
E F#m7 G#m7 B7 E
Makes me smile, and that's hard to do
A E B7sus B7
I don't think it's something you realize you do
PRE-CHORUS:
G#m7 C#m7
You make me feel
G#m7 C#m7
Like I'm the only guy
A B7
With you in the world
CHORUS:
E
But we can't be together
B
Can't really be friends
A
We can't be lovers
B
And we can't pretend
G# C#m7
Oh that boy in your life
A
Better make you his wife
E B7
And he better believe he's a lucky guy
INTERLUDE: E A (repeat)
VERSE:
You wanted a song well here's one for you
Nobody will know except for us two
Don't ask me about it
Cuz I won't tell the truth
Just know that there's someone
Thinking of you
PRE-CHORUS:
You make me feel
Something I wish wasn't real at all
[CHORUS] x3
