Firstly: Dragon is a New Zealand band - though I see that's already
been pointed out.

April Sun - this is off the top of my head.....
---------

over intro and verses:
strum Asus4 and A for a bar each ie ||: Asus4 | A :||

then after the bit "snakes eyes...." the chords are
D, C#m, Bm, then one guitar plays A, GMaj7 while another plays an A, sliding
up to an F# on the high E string

over the chorus strum ||:D | GMaj7 :||
ie GMaj7 D GMaj7 D .....
" Take me to the April sun in Cuba. Whoooooaaaa.....
-with the A->F# slide over the GMaj7 at the appropriate time.
the chorus ends with a 'powerful' D strummed twice

then verse and chorus again

over the quiet bit strum ||: Bm | A :|| - in fact there isn't actually
a guitar doing this on the song, but a Bm and A seem to be implied by
the bass, and vocals.
then it's back to D, C#m, B and chorus etc

then final verse

chords:
Asus4 0 A 0 D 2 or 5 C#m 4 Bm 2 GMaj7 2
3 2 3 7 5 3 0
2 2 2 7 6 4 0
2 2 0 7 6 4 0
x x x x x x x

|- (depending on whether it's C#m or GMaj7 to follw)
