How to play "I wish I knew how it would feel to be free" on the guitar (for Russ Shipton)

Russ - you play this on July 17th and i will sit by your side and decorate it.

Also of course it was the theme to the film programme on the Beeb with Barry Norman (you can find the original if you look for the Billy Taylor version).

Does anyone have the tabs for this version??? I'm not keen on the John Martin version.

Those two chords are diminished 7 chords! First one has an F sharp root and the other is a G sharp root. The G sus chord could also be called F/G. Nice job, it sounds great.
