This is a great song, atmospheric and somehow deep.
As this is my first tab and I'm still quite a novice myself, please don't judge too hard
about it.
I'm pretty sure about the chords, though. They sure sound fine.
Just make sure to vary in the way you play them - the song sounds better the more you
play them note by note just like the piano and bass do in the original.
One last thing about the timing: I tried to match the chords as exactly to the syllabees
as possable - still there's no way around listening to the song again and again about
it. Or just improvise.
