I was playing around with this and found the existing chords out there very thin, so
here are some beefed up chords which support the melody a bit better. I have not
detailed out every last line of the song, but there is
enough here to get you going with a richer harmonic palette.
Since this is in key of A, it is easy to use the open 6th E string as a pedal point.
So for ex the first few lines, up to 'every step I take' you can just use the open E
as the bass for all the chords. Creates an expectant, faintly mysterious mood.
