AA#mC#D#mEFF#Fsus4G#9 chords used in this song
This arrangement is in the key of Kate Bush's original. The chords look tortuous, but they are really just familiar open shapes (A,Am,F,D,Dm) combined with the barre. The main repeating movements are fairly small and the voicings sound good to me. A-F-E-C#, D#m-F#-Fsus4, F#-G#-C#, and even A#m-G#-F#-D#m-G#. Give it a try for a good exercise in barre chords.
