the d-chord on the line "weight of the world over you" and the corresponding lines throughout the song should be Dm
other than that it sounds great!
great work !
a pleasure to play this fantastic song !
Agree with mattman about the D chord. it should be Dm.
Also, the Em chord should be E instead.
Looks perfect otherwise.
