A augmentedA ----x--------2---------3-----------3----------3--------------|
E MajorE ----3--------------------------------------------------------|

The first chord with G+G shape you can play it with the 5th string on fret 2 but if you
when you change to the next, the difference is clearer.

Chorus

     G+G   Gsus2/B Cmaj7Cmaj7  E minorEm    D6D6   Cmaj7Cmaj7

Guitar II (Standard tunning)

This one would come in since the second chorus

Chorus

     C majorC   Csus2Csus2     FF     A minorAm    G+G      FF

A augmentedA ----3--------3---------3---------0--------2--------3-------------|
E MajorE ------------------------1-------------------3--------1-----------|

For the verse I'm not so much convinced about the last two chords in the standard
maybe you can play it with the chords posted before for this song, they're not so bad and I
to play something like this

    Csus2Csus2   C majorC      F5F5     FF    Fsus2Fsus2
E MajorE ----------------------------------------------------|
BB ----1--------1---------1---------1--------1---------|

D MajorD ----0--x8---2--x8----3--x8----3--x4---3-x4----------|
A augmentedA ----3--------3---------3---------3------- 3---------|
E MajorE ------------------------1----------1-------1--------|

Guitar III (Standard tunning)


This one would be the electric guitar, I'm not sure what's played through the
whole song, just this

This riff starts in the second verse
E---------------------|
B---------------------|
G---------------------|
D---------------------|
A-------5---3---------|
E---------------------|

This is played for the last chorus, it has like a synth kinda sound
E-----------------------------------------------12-x4------------12-x8-----|
B-----13-x8---15x-8---13-x16-----10-x4------------12-x8------------13-x16--|
G--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------|

For the chorus well this guitar seems to play something simple like fifths chords for
I've seen and for verses maybe you could play something like bass

D-------------------------------------------------------------|
A----3-x8----7-x8-----8-x8-----12-x4-----10-x4----------------|
E-------------------------------------------------------------|


Hope it works, just try it and make the changes you will so you enjoy playing it the most.


THE END!
