I think the key is Cminor, so the chords should be Cm Fm Ab Eb. The original is quite high, so to sing comfortably, I transposed it down 5 times to G minor, chords - Gm Cm Eb Bb. Then Capo on the Third Frett the chord shapes are then Em Am C G, so very easy to play. Great song though, recently heard it on Devs :)
