I'm open for suggestions. I'm still a beginner ( i only play guitar for 8 months or so ) 
I could have made some errors.
I accidentaly found this song on youtube . You can listen to it here :

Here is the fingering for these chords:

Bb  => x13331
Bbm => x13321
B   => x24442
C#  => x46664
C#7 => x46464
C#+ => xx7665
F#  => 244322
F#m => 244222
Ab  => 466544

I think this would be quite hard for the begginers ( basicly, all the chords are barre 
, which are not easy ) .
If you can't play these chords, you can try and play the whole song 4 notes down. For 
the song starts
with a G# . Going down 4 notes from G# we find F . Similary, you play A instead of C#, 
You'll still have barre
chords to play, but at least most of the chords are now open chords and the few 
barre chords can be
easily substituted with easier versions. It's also a good opportunity for you to 
those barre chords :)
