How do you make 'Fine' more specific in sheet music?

I want the music to stop at the G note marked in red. How?

I think the easiest way would be for you to re-write the last and first few measures so that the DS is at the beginning of the measures.
Or you could do the crazy thing I did. Open the attached score. If you have View>view invisible checked you will see what I did. Uncheck it and the score looks and plays properly. As in no repeats in the DS.
Hopefully someone will have a better idea.

As you see, I did it with meter changes. But it can also be done adjusting measure properties.
You see that the DS has to go at the beginning of a measure. So to do that I had to create different measure lengths.
Whenever we add a meter change, every measure after that becomes that meter. To place the DS, we need a 5/8 measure before measure 3. I we just put 5/8 in measure two that will mess up the rest of the song.
So we place a 4/4 at Measure 3. It's already 4/4 and we want it to stay that way. I should have made that invisible, also.
In the measure before, we make the first two beats 1/8 rests. After the third rest add a bar line from the bar line palette. The added bar line is not really functional until we add a 5/8 time signature to the measure and add a 3/8 to the measure before. Fill in the notes. We can now put the DS where is needs to go.

As you can see, we have to work backwards (right to left) . Not normal notation which works left to right.
None of this might be used very often, but it's good to know.
