Verse (3x Part 2) Repeat Chorus (4x Part 1) Notes
This song is surprisingly simple although it kicks you right between the eyes when you first hear it. Almost only simple major and minor chords are used, except one minor seven, which, in my opinion, gives the song what is so special about it (in combination with the vast use of strings, the incredible melody-line and the arrangement, which begins very calm and ends in a explosion of sounds). The first part is used for verses as well as chorus, which also includes some piano/keyboard. The second part is the one between the verses and chorus and uses almost the same picking scheme as the first part, only the chords differ. Since the chords of part 3 are not played by guitar (strings are used here), I tried to figure out the correct chords and added a guitar-picking of my own, which I hope is somewhat ok. I also noted what I think the distorted guitar plays during this part (This is somewhat hard to figure out since it is not clear which part is strings and which is guitar...)
