*UPDATE* TAB!

Since you all want the chords so badly I thought I'd put um up.

To start, to play with the recording you'd have to tune every string down two semitones. For my video I didn't detune. Too much work, haha.

The beginning is real simple:

Em, to Am. Just repeat it, over and over.

If you want to play the piano bridge at around the 45 second mark, the chards are:

Am, Em, F, C, Em, B7

The only tricky part of the song is the ending (and I assume the only thing you all have been having trouble finding on the interweb?). G G B7 Em Em C
E|---3-3---------------0-0-------------:|
B|---0-0---------------0-0------8-0----:|
G|---0-0------4-0------0-0----9--------:|
D|---0-0----7----------2-2/------------:|
A|---2-2/--------------2-2/------------:|
E|---3-3/-7------------0-0--8----------:|

And then you just repeat that until the end of the song and end on a G.

Smack the whole chord for G and Em, and then slide up (create a slide sound anyway you like, I just wrote how I do it)to the riff.

So yeah, if that's hard to understand, write me a comment or IM or something.

Thanks for watching :)

  • OK that was awesome. Thanks for the tab too although I struggled a lot with the 4th fret on the G string then I realized you can play the 9th fret on the D string instead and it made it tons easier for me.
