Four chords throughout the whole song: Gm F D# F
I sometimes play it G#m F# E F# because I think that it is easier (works to
play along with if you tune your guitar to D#), but this is the way Mando Diao plays it
both live and on the album. Hope you'll enjoy! Feel free to correct.
Rest in peace, Kristian Gidlund.
