I also did my best to figure out the chords in the bridge section...
I couldn't really figure out what the third one was (maybe E augmented,
but the voicings on the keyboard move around which makes it even harder to tell.
E7 works pretty well.
Anyway, what I've put sounds close-ish and it changes the second time around:
E Maj7 C#Min7/9E???? F#min7E Maj7 C#Min7 E?2.0 F#min7E7
