Chords

For those looking for the chords for his cover of I Love You by Billie Eilish:
He generally seems to be playing the same pattern for the Fmaj7b5 and Cmaj7 chords 
in the verses:
     Fmaj7b5                              Cmaj7
e|| -------------0---------------0--- || -------------0---------------0--- ||
B|| -----0-------0-------0-------0--- || -----0-------0-------0-------0--- ||
G||.---2-------2-------2-------2-----.||.---0-------0-------0-------0-----.||
D||.-3-------3-------3-------3-------.||.---------------------------------.||
A|| --------------------------------- || -3-------3-------3-------3------- ||
E|| --------------------------------- || --------------------------------- ||
     1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a      1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a
He doesn't actually play the chords in verse 2, but the backing track continues, so I have listed the chords for that verse too. The pattern changes for the chorus sections, but he restarts the pattern with the Cmaj7 chords over the oohs at the end of the chorus.

    F/C             F6/C
I'm in your arms in Central Park

        G                 G6
There's nothing you could do or say

  G7               G       Am
