G6 [G](000023) - from 1st string to 6th Em* [Em](000420) C (310230) C#m7b5 (x5454x) Cmaj7 [C](x5453x) or (354533) Gmaj9 [D](53045x) - just like C chord, just move it 2 frets higher. F#11b9 (000423) - add D string to G6 A7 (020200) G (330023) Esus2 (000420) B5 (000422) - those 2 chords are similar to F#11b9
pay attention to his specific way to play it with his right hand.
