To play the F#add9, You play the G cord, move your fingers (while keeping the same shape,) to the first fret,
while adding a bar on the G string. Same position for the G#add9, just starting on the third fret.

C#
I counted the stars tonight,
C#F#9
Oh how they shine so bright,
C#F#9C#
I gather them all, so we perfectly align
C#
While we gaze from far away.
C#F#9
And separately watch the day
C#F#9C#
Come rising across the horizon in our minds.
