The chords after the first chorus might need some explaining:
  Chords that are connected with a hyphen, such as A-E, are played right after one another. The E
chord is played after only 2 strums of the A.
  Chords that are followed by a space, such as D A E, are played almost right after one another. The
A chord is played after about 4 strums of the D, and the E after about 4 strums of the A.
  Chords that are followed by a comma, such as E , D , A-E, are played like the normal playing style 
of the rest of the song. The D is played after about 6 strums of the E (and this is the same for the
verses, pre-choruses, and choruses)

Refer to Chorus 2: for more understanding of the chord structure.

Grant me a new one, I'm growing slowly, sign of reflection, cured by a godess
                C#m                 Bm                 A
