If playing the Bb13 chord is too awkward then you can 
either omit it and just mute the strings and strum then
jump to the next chord or play just the top four 
strings for an easier version. Line 83 gives the notes
to play over the vocals when the brass riff happens 
during the outro and Gladys sings over it there.

Chords Used                                        Brass Riff (Played at the intro and throughout)

You planted seeds of love in my heart,     with all the
 tender words you said at the start
F7sus4                    F7                         
But love is something you shouldn't begin, if you're 
Fm7*                            Bb13
not gonna see it through to the end

[Chorus]

A taste of honey is a dangerous thing,     after it's 
gone, the memories cling
F7sus4                  F7

left undone and incom-plete
