[Verse 1]
F#m            G
Trying hard to speak and
Bm               A6
Fighting with my weak hand
F#m          G
Driven to distraction
Bm             A6
It's all part of the plan
F#m               G
When something is broken
Bm             A6
And you try to fix it
F#m         G
Trying to repair it
E           G     E     G
Any way you can
 
[Verse 2]

You become my best friend

When he sings "I know something is broken", it switches to F# major instead F#m, same for "Trying to repair it" Also the Emaj7 in the chorus doesn't sound right, I don't hear a D# in the song that would justify this choice, E major sounds better imo Otherwise this is a pretty cool tab!

Great tab! Thank you very much... But I have a question, can I play the A6 with F#m instead? Because you said "On A6 chord, just add the second fret of the 1st (High E) string", doesnt that mean F#m without 2 lowest sounded strings? Thank you once again... :D:D:D

In the chorus, it should be Dadd9 Cadd#4 E7
