Chords

From the brilliant album, Wall Of Arms. There was no chords or tabs online so worked it out. Its Fairly straight-forward to play, just listen for chord changes. This is my first tab but the chords sound good, I will try to post the lead parts whenever I can get around to it..... Enjoy. Please rate and feedback would be good. [email protected] for anything. Chords: C#m | x 4 6 6 5 4 | Bm | x 2 4 4 3 2 | A | 5 7 7 6 5 5 | D | x 5 7 7 7 5 | E | x 7 9 9 9 7 | F#m | 2 4 4 2 2 2 | G#m | 4 6 6 4 4 4 Also I think higher A, G#m and F#m chords sound better at points, which are: A* | x 12 14 14 14 12 | G#m*| x 11 13 13 12 11 | F#m*| x 9 11 11 10 9 Intro: C#m, Bm, A, C#m, A, C#m
