Hi Simone, I’ve put the chords up on the site if you want to check them out. There is also a link to guitar chords and lyrics on the Ultimate-Guitar.com website in case you want to transpose the chords of the song quickly.
Nice one , but can you help me to improve on changing faster
Hey man, I recommend practising standard chord progressions. I got two examples on the site here:

Start slow with single strums and gradually build up the speed of your counting and the number of strums you do. Watch the vids and you’ll understand what I mean. Hope it helps
