None of them
Chorded by ear from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgwUenaQqlM and the official instrumental version
Tempo: quarter note = 195 BPM
Note that the song begins in E-flat major and modulates to E major in the last chorus
The chords posted here are correct *for the basic structure*, but they omit the small runs, fills, and texture
of some chords which don't properly translate well to a full chord (played on acoustic guitar for example).
Some more "contentious" chords include the Eb/G (E/G# after the modulation/key change) which can be
substituted with a Gm (G#m after the modulation) for more notice guitar players.
Guitar tabs and proper sheet music that are more accurate to the actual notes played in the song will
inevitably become available in the future, but for the moment (and for notice guitarists, pianists, etc.),
these chords should suffice as a correct chord progression backbone upon which one's own musicality, ear,
and flavouring can (i.e. *should*) be added.
The outro ("I have met so many heroes in my life...") part contains the most ambiguous chords, especially
towards the last line. The root notes are definitely F# (or *maybe* A), G#, F#, B. The progression can be
played as F#m G#m F#m B, but both F#m chords (particularly the second one) can be switched for an A.
