Finally someone posts the chords... It's been a little exercition. One of the first songs I've tried to decipher the chords from, after having used lots of transcriptions from the internet.

Especially welcome are suggestions: dirkjan80[at]gmail[dot]com
Or you could post them in the thread.
It messes with the chord positions in the preview, but I've managed the best I can.
Good luck and please let me know.
