My first piano cover! :D Played by ear.
It's the full "More Than This" version - not just the small piano instrumental in the original song. I replaced the vocal line with a piano melody. This song is really beautiful and it means a lot to me, so I thought I'd try to arrange it in my own way.
I would have liked to record myself playing this in a video, but my camera kind of died recently. Please comment and rate, and subscribe if you want to :)

CHORDS
I have listed each and every chord here; just play them in order when you hear the chords change. :)
Intro:
Bb, C, Bb, F
MTT Verse 1: ("yesterday I died" until "graves of the unknown)
Bb C, Bb, F, Bb, C, Dm, C (x2)
Bb C, Bb, F, Bb, C, Dm, C
F (1st inversion), Bb, F (1st inversion), Bb, C, Bb, C, Bb
MTT verse 2: ("as reasons cloud my eyes" until "faith is all I hold")
Bb C, Bb, F, Bb, C, Dm, C
F (1st inversion), Bb, F (1st inversion), Bb, C, Bb, C, Bb
Second Intro:
Dm, Bb, F, C
Verse 3: ("and I've lost who I am" until "his love will conquer")
Dm, Bb, F (1st inversion)*, C (x5)
Verse 4: (second "and I've lost who I am" until "and his love will conquer all")
Dm, Bb, F, C (x5)
Coda: ("his love with conquer all" (echo) until "fall into your sunlight")
Bb, C, Bb, C
Bb, C, Bb, F
End on Bb
FIRST INVERSION OF F (if you're unclear):
A normal F chord/triad would be the notes F/A/C played in order, but the first inversion is A/C/F played in order instead.
*I know other piano covers on here don't use the first inversion of F for the shorter version of the song, and use the original F chord, but believe me; I'm very sure that it's actually the first inversion. It makes sense because the first verse of the shorter version of the song (Verse 3) needs to have a sense of incompleteness and urgency, before letting Verse 4 give that full blast using the original chord, as both verses would otherwise be completely the same.

SHEET MUSIC/USING THE MUSIC: I get requests for the sheet music of this cover. I'm really truly sorry but I don't have the time just yet to write the sheet music. I keep thinking that I will, but school is being absolutely brutal. I'll update this when I do write the sheet music.
If you would like to use this song, in a video or something, feel free! :) Just remember to credit me and message me with the video or something because I would absolutely love to see hehe. :)
--------------------
PIANO INSTRUMENTAL: I've recorded a piano instrumental (without the vocal line in the right hand) for singing along to. It's available for listening and download at my SoundCloud, here: http://soundcloud.com/daphnep/trading-yesterday-shattered. (Piano sound quality is much better, too. :D) Again, feel free to use it in a video or something as long as you credit me. :) Hope you'll like it!

@DarkDragonHearts No I'm sorry I haven't written the sheet music just yet. :( School is so hectic. Maybe sometime in the near future though.
