TINY TINY correction! i think [tab] e|----------------------------------| b|----------------------------------| g|----------------------------------| D|-----------------1-1-1------------| A|---------------3-------3-1-1-1-3--| E|-1-1-1-3-4-4-4--------------------| original one note added e|------------------------------------| b|------------------------------------| g|------------------------------------| D|-----------------1-1-1--------------| A|---------------3---------3-1-1-1-3--| E|-1-1-1-3-4-4-4---------4------------| [/tab] though you really have to play the new note quite fast, nevertheless an awesome tab!

I think the chords are Fm, G#, D# and Bb for the chorus.

Capo on first fret. e|-------------------------------------| b|-------------------------------------| g|-------------------------------------| D|-----------------0-0-0---------------| A|---------------2-------2-0-0-0h2p0---| E|-0-0-0-2-3-3-3---------------------h2| p = pull off h = hammer on If you listen carefully, you will hear the hammer in the end of guitar tab 1. I thought it was easier to play the tab with capo, and now you can also play the chords.. Em, G, D, A If you don't want to make the hammer, you need to play: e|----------------------------------| b|----------------------------------| g|----------------------------------| D|-----------------1-1-1------------| A|---------------3-------3-1-1-1----| E|-1-1-1-3-4-4-4-----------------3--|
