Couldn't find this one with a search so thought I'd post it. Apologies if it's a duplication.
I Wanna Be Loved - John Green, Billy Rose, Edward Heyman

Thank you Katieo!

I added slashes to the 2nd measure in the A-sections so the player would continue the preceding chord for the first half of the bar. Without slashes, the player will sound a chord entered on in any space on the first beat of the bar.

I actually like the way it plays better without the slashes but it's certainly another option. I also realized I missed the starting bar line in the intro - oops.

So you prefer it like this:

I Wanna Be Loved 2 - John Green, Billy Rose, Edward Heyman

This is how the player plays it without the slashes, but that can be confusing to the musician. Should the F7 start on the 3rd beat of the measure? Or on the first beat (the way you prefer and how the player will play your initial version (without the slashes) the way this version #2 is written.
