When he sings " OH, LORD", the right chord is a Bb, not a F.
An this song was writen by Bennie Benjamin for Ninna Simone, The Animals did a cover, it's not the original version.

Yep, Bb chord over the 'oh, Lord'

hmmm yes the original is one thing - but these chords are for the Joe Cocker version and the chord in question is not Bb on the Oh Lord but Dm - the animals play it in Bm the same as Nina Simone and they do something different again on the Oh Lord part, but Elvis Costello's version definitely played Em (in the key of Bb)
