It seems that http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/g/george_harrison/my_sweet_lord_crd.htm
uses javascript to display chords, so this would need defining
dedicated markup directives which is a bit more work...

BTW, shouln't be the F7 chord something more like:

e -x-|---|---|---|---|
B -x-|---|---|---|---|
G ---|-x-|---|---|---|
D -x-|---|---|---|---|
A ---|---|---|---|---|
E ---|---|---|---|---|

and for those interrested, Abdim7 is:

e ---|---|---|-x-|---|
B ---|---|---|---|---|
G ---|---|---|-x-|---|
D ---|---|---|---|---|
A ---|---|---|---|-x-|
E ---|---|---|-x-|---|
