The problem you may be having is that the chords could be major, minor, diminished, or augmented. But from the information that you have given it would seem that all the chords are major. Though that is unlikely.
When you are transcribing from guitar to piano the notes should stay the same becuase they are both "C" instruments no matter the tunning of the guitar strings. When playing the chords on piano make sure the notes are right and then start inverting them to find the best sound. The third or the fifth of the chord is usually a good bass note to try when transferring from guitar.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
