Gregory Alan Isakov – Astronaut chords

Chords:

It sounds best if you add a base note of G to the C chords and C to the Fmaj7. 
Gives a fuller sound.

G chord sounds better if you play as shown (technically a G6add11 or Cmaj9)

Listen to the song for strum pattern - best to give emphasis on base notes.
