Some correcrtions on "Too Gone"

Here are the chords (key of D) laid out like a chord chart:

Verses 1 & 2

        B7 (x21202@1)    %       %       %       (% == repeat previous measure)
        E7 (020130@1)    %       %       %
        A7 (x02020@1)    %       D (xx0232@1)     B7 (x21202@1)       E7 (020130@1)    %       A7 (x02020@1)    %
        B7 (x21202@1)    %       %       %
        D (xx0232@1)     %       F#7 (242352@1)   %
        B7 (x21202@1)    %       E7 (020130@1)    %
        A7 (x02020@1)    %       D (xx0232@1)     %

Final (half) Verse & Coda

        B7 (x21202@1)    %       %       %
        D (xx0232@1)     %       F#7 (242352@1)   %
        B7 (x21202@1)    %       E7 (020130@1)    %
        A7 (x02020@1)    %       F#7 (242352@1)   %
        B7 (x21202@1)    %       E7 (020130@1)    %
        A7 (x02020@1)    %       D (xx0232@1)     %


Or, to put it another way:


            B7You've (x21202@1)been too gone, for too long,
     E7It's (020130@1)too late to come back now.
A7 (x02020@1)                        D7 (xx0212@1)          B7It's (x21202@1)been so long since you walked out my door,
           E7 (020130@1)                    A7Now (x02020@1)you're just an old song nobody sings anymore.
          B7I (x21202@1)gotta a new love and she's the true love,
    D (xx0232@1)                        F#7But (242352@1)darlin' how could you have known?
                   B7 (x21202@1)          E7'Cause (020130@1)you've been too gone, for too long
         A7 (x02020@1)                  Dnow (xx0232@1)it's too late to come back home


and


        B7I (x21202@1)had a good cry when you said "Goodbye."
D (xx0232@1)                        F#7 (242352@1)   I didn't wanna let you go,
                B7 (x21202@1)         E7But (020130@1)you've been too gone for too long,
   A7 (x02020@1)                    F#7So (242352@1)why don't you just stay gone?
            B7 (x21202@1)         E7You've (020130@1)been too gone for too long,
         A7 (x02020@1)                  DNow (xx0232@1)it's too late to come back home.
