Guitar Tab

The song is played with a capo at 5 and the tuning is;
(not relative to capo) DADF#AE

so basically open D with the high E kept the same.

the song is quite repeditive, with the same chords sometiems being used for a matter of minutes.
still good.

this is just the chords for the acoustic guitar that Guy plays, not the fills and such
the other guitar.

Verse:
   I'll be  the....

Verse again|

then Chorus|

then THIS

E-------0-----0----0-----0--|
A-----0----0----0-----0-----|
F#--2----2---2-----2--------|
D---------------------------|
A---------------------------|
D---------------------------|

Then he just plays this chord for the rest of the next verse;

E------0-------------|
A------0-------------|
F#-----0-------------|
D------0-------------|
A------0-------------|
D------0-------------|

then back to the chorus

then he plays this for a long time as the keyboard plays some chords over it, until it
to get a bit heavier, you'll hear for yourself.

E-------0-----0----0-----0--|
A-----0----0----0-----0-----|
F#--2----2---2-----2--------|
D---------------------------|
A---------------------------|
D---------------------------|

then it's just this chord for the rest of the song

E---0---|
A---0---|
F#--2---|
D-------|
A-------|
D-------|

it sounds good if you add some fills in like

E------------------------|
A------------------------|
F#-----------------------|

A--2h4-4-4-4h5p4-2-4-----|

but, whatever really.
