Sky Is Over Chords

(ver. 2)
Serj Tankian
So, I've learned how to play this song on piano and next I started to
experiment with classical guitar sounds (standard tuning). 
Finally I've made this...I hope it's correct.
This is my own (and first) cover, so some chords may be false. 
I hope, you'll like it, enjoy!

[Verse2]:

Cm
  Behind closes eyes lie
  The minds ready to awaken you,
Fm(ver1)
  Are you at war with land
      Ab         Fm(ver2)
  And all of its creatures,
Cm
  Your not-so-gentle persuasion
  Has been known to wreck economies
     Fm(ver1)                   Ab     Fm(ver2)
  Of countries, of empires, the sky is over,
