For the Cadd9 (C) switch, just put your fingers in a C chord, add your pinky, and 
then let off for one strum on the C 

G5    - 3X003X
D/F#  - 2X023X
C     - x3201x
Cadd9 - X3203X

    G5                   G
So good to meet you, Mr. Chess
     D/F#              C          Cadd9 (C)
I've always heard that you're the best
    D/F#               C                      Cadd9 (C)
At housing knights and castles high up in the air

   G5                 G
so I beseech you, Mr. Chess
   D/F#         C           Cadd9
To let me sleep inside your bed
   D/F#                        C                         
And would you sleep too, would you sleep too 
       Cadd9 (C)
in the chair?

    G5                   G
You see, I dream of many things
     D/F#        C    Cadd9
Of floating, solitary kings
     G5                   C                     Cadd9  (C)
Of pawns and people with blue sequins through their hair

    G5                   G
The jesters sings, the bishop brings
     D/F#   C               Cadd9
The queen a hollow following
     G5               C               Cadd9       (C)
And all the pawns and people stop and people stare

    G5                   G
So, I too stop, At three o'clock
     D/F#         C        Cadd9 (C)
I stumble to your door And knock
    G5     G        C      Cadd9       C            Cadd9 (C)
And ask to see you, ask to be you, Mr. Chess O, Mr. Chess

     G5                 G
Now, I beseech you, Mr. Chess
   D/F#             C      Cadd9 (C)
To let me sleep, to let me rest
   D/F#             C      Cadd9              (C)
To let me dream, to let me sing without a care

    G5                      G
And I will dream you things so fair
    D/F#       C              Cadd9 (C)
I'll sing you castles in the air
    D/F#                     Cadd9
And I will sleep too, I will sleep too
       C           G5            G
I will rest, O Mr. Chess, my Mr. Chess
