The tab is a good starting point, but it's also inaccurate if you want to play along to the recording. Especially the "A#" doesn't fit. I used a live video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yK3IlV3l9xY) to figure out the actual chords, they're as follows: PART A Dm: xx0231 (don't use the ring finger, you'll need it for the Dm/C bass note) Dm/C: x3x231 Gm7: 35536x (barred on III) Edim7/Bb: 6757xx (this replaces the "A#" in your chart) A7: 5756xx (barred on V) [repeat] PART B Gm7: 35536x (as above) C7: x32310 Dm: xx0231 (as above) Dsus2: xx0230 Gm7: 35536x (as above) C7: x32310 (as above) Edim7/Bb: 67575x (barred on V; note the high e in this arpeggiated occurrence) A7: 5756xx (as above)

such a beautiful song

Excellent Tab!
