d|-------------------------|         It's not difficult to figure out the
A|-------------------------|         strumming pattern for the chorus. It

To be honest, I was never to good at pinpointing different effects, but this is
generally what the guitar plays:


         Lead
d|---------------------------|
A|-10/16----10/15------------|
F|--x/x------x/x-------------|  X4
C|--7/13-----7/12------------|
G|---------------------------|
C|---------------------------|



Heres the ryhthm behind it

                                                 |
                                                 | X2

C|-[3]*---[3]*---[3]*----------------------------- |
    N.H.  N.H.  N.H.

Piano part

While the piano is playing just play the 4 chords in the chorus
and use clean volume swells.


Chorus 3

d|-------------------------|
A|-------------------------|
F|-12---5----7----10-------|  X6
C|-12---5----7----10-------|
G|-10---3----5----8--------|
C|-10---3----5----8--------|


Outro

d|---------------20----------------------18----|
A|-20----------------------22------------------|
F|-------17--19----------------------17--------|
C|-------------------------------19------------|
G|---------------------------------------------|
C|---------------------------------------------|

^keep playing this till it fades out. (use chorus chords as ryhthm)

note : when you play 19th fret on the d string, it could possibly be replaced by the
20th fret but i couldnt really distinguish which one it actually was. see what sounds best.



Thats it for my second tab. I think its pretty accurate. Email me or comment for suggestions.
