I think this version is correct. The G/F# sounds like what they are playing,
and although the Bm/F# in the other version works, it sounds a little shrill
and the G/F# seems to work better.
Credit where credit is due: I didn’t figure this out myself - there is a video on youtube entitled
Guided By Voices "Echos Myron" Cover by “Alex Musician” (a Russian guitarist)
who was kind enough to share the chords.
Check out his video - he adds a few embellishments that aren’t included here.
BTW the song is called “Echos Myron” not “Echoes Myron.”

most of us are quite pleased
G G/F# Em C
with the same old song
Bm Em Am D
and all of a sudden i'm relatively sane

with everything to lose and nothing to gain
Em C D
or something like that

man of wisdom and man of compromise
Bm G C D
man of weak flesh in an armored disguise all fall down

C G Em
"if it's right you can tell" echos myron like a siren
F
with endurance like the liberty bell

and he tells you of the dreamers

but he's cracked up like the road

and he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load
