I think this is right now - it sounds just about the same as the chords in
the recording, and although there are some chords that may sound better in
some parts of the song (which you can see somewhere in the comments of the
Sylvia Version 1 chords), but I decided to stick with the actual chords from
the recording.
Enjoy!
