*************************************************
 
a bit of explanation ;)
 
The guitar and bass are playing each their common chord progression, but not the same :)
So they kind of diverge, shift around and come together again.
This idea of different layers makes up much of the athmosphere of the song.
 
Bass part throughout the whole song:
| C#m   G#m  | A     E  D# |
| C#m   B    | A     E  D# |
 
Guitar part Intro:
| C#m   B    | A     B     |
 
Guitar part Chorus:
| C#m   B    | A     G#m B |
 
Combining those two layers happens in second half of intro, first chorus, and second half of 3rd chorus.
For the rest it's more the bass alone, guitar adding sounds or a single C#m sound
(which would be another layer, too.)
To mix the ideas, I write these chords with slashes / here, for example B/E.
Remember the guitar would only do the upper chord (here B), the bass of course the lower part (here E).
 
Ok go!
