Chords

This song is really complicated with a lot of string/instrumental/plucking parts (it kind of reminds me of Enya in places tbh) so I hope I've gotten all the chords correct. As always, feel free to comment and correct with suggestions :) [Intro] Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim A5 Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim Dm C#dim C#dim Dm C#dim A [Refrain]
