The fantastic theme song to the show Over the Garden Wall, in its complete version.
The song is played on piano in the show, hence I've taken a few liberties
in assigning chords. Tons of help was provided by the sheet music from
riphsmusic.tumblr.com/post/103294670203/ 
so thanks very much to that transcriber.

Chords:
B6: x21104
Cdim/D#: x6457x
F#m/A: x07675 or x 0 11 11 10 9
F#m/A(II): x0422x
C#m/G#(II): 442xxx
D#7*: Could be D#7sus2: x6866x
   (The sheet music indicated there's an F in this last chord,
   but D#sus2 doesn't sound right. You can also get by with a D#7 or D#m7)

Piano intro:
                C#m      G#      C#m...
E--3h4-5-4-3-4--16-------16-15-
B------------------14-17-------

Part I:
C#m             B6           F#m/C#        F#m
Led through the mist, by the milk-light of moon
C#m/G#       Cdim/D#      C#m    G#7
All that was lost     is revealed
    C#m         B6            F#m/A         G#
Our long bygone burdens, mere echoes of the spring,
    A             C#m/G#    F#m            G#
But where have we come, and where shall we end?
   F#m/A(II)         C#m/G#(II) F#m        G#    
If dreams can't come true, then why not pretend?
                            (just emphasize the lower strings on these first 3 chords)

Part II:
   C#             Ddim
Oh how the gentle wind
D#m                 G#6
Beckons through the leaves,
   C#     F7     F#   Bb7
As autumn colors fall

D#m          G#7
Dancing in a swirl,
C#        Bb7
Of golden memories,
    D#7*      G#7     C#
The loveliest lies of all.

(There's some piano flourish in the outro,
which can be approximated with an A -> C# arpeggio)

The latter chords repeat some on the show to accommodate
