Better than the C,G,Am,F version as in the same key as the original!

almost there :)

At the end of the chorus on the last "love" (godforsaken right to be loved love loved love love) there is a C#7 chord. (1112)

I think playing the E chord like (4442) instead of (1402) is easier and sounds better, bu that's just personal preference.

Also, you didn't include the scat part in the middle of the song. Chords are below

B(2 beats), F#(2 beats), G#m(2 beats), F# (2 beats), E(4 beats), C#7(4 beats)....X2

Apart from those minor things, good tab.
