Monument
View chords used in this chart
I loved the new song from Röyksopp and Robyn, but I couldn't find any chords for it online so
I made my own. This is all played by ear, so there might be some errors. Feel free to add
corrections. I strum the chords in rhythm of the music and pause each strum. Enjoy!
