In this version the sevenths were reduced to triads, but no change was merged: in this song the chords already last long enough, so the number of changes is the same. A diminished chord appears as minor — that is a substitution, not an equivalence: it sounds close when you are playing along, but it is not the same chord. For the harmony as it is, use the full version.
