I believe this is a 2/2 time signature -althought I could be mistaken..
It is an awesome song overall written in key of A minor.
Here we go with the chords:
For the intro:
Strum the A minor chord with root on 6th note the first time, the second
run go for the Am chord again, but this time an octave higher -root on 12th fret, 5th string.
