Sounds great, however it doesn't sound quite on for the Am and F. Difficult to form (am) and doesn't sound quite right. Maybe its just you can't hear it in the song because that is when the synths kick in. Any alternatives that may be easier to play?

would be perfect if you had shown how the fingerwork needs to be done (the original song doesnt use all chords at once :-/ )
