Chord names have been altered to be more recognizable as if in standard tuning. Actual chord names are listed below the chord chart.
The G chord seems to be used rarely in the song, if at all, but Emerson likes to play it after the Gsus4 chord in various spots when I've seen him perform. Either way you play it is personal preference.
