Progression:
(Intro)
Lyrics: Love is born with lightning bolts, electro-magnetic force, burning
skin and fireworks, a storm on a raging course
(Intro) w/ Palm Mute with lyrics: Like a force of nature, love can fade with
the stars at dawn, sometimes it takes all your strength, to keep holding on
(Chorus Chords) with lyrics: At the speed of love, a radiance that travels,
at the speed of love, my heart goes out to you
(1st four notes of the Intro) with lyrics: Love is born with solar flares,
from two magnetic poles, it moves toward a higher plane, where two halves
make to wholes
(Intro) w/ Palm Mute with lyrics: Like a force of nature, love shines in many
forms, one night we are bathed in light, one day carried away in storm
(Chorus Chords) with lyrics: At the speed of love, nothing changes faster, at
the speed of love, my heart goes out to you
Lyric: Whoa ho oh ho...
(Solo) During Solo, Intro w/ Pam Mute is being played once

(Bridge)x12 with lyrics: Got to keep on moving, at the speed of love, nothing
changes faster, than the speed of love, got to keep on shining, at the speed
of love
(Chorus Chords) with lyrics: At the speed of love, a radiance that travels,
at the speed of love, my heart goes out to you

(End on Fsus2)
The Speed of Love is upon us all! I've been working on this for a few
hours and here's what I came up with. Instead of doing a incredibly
huge progression at the bottom like usual, I've "borrowed" Jimmy Pena's
method. By the way, this has all guitars arranged for one. I'm pretty
sure that "Fsus2" isn't the actual name for the chord that I have
labeled as "Fsus2" but that's what I'll call it. As usual, the bars
have nothing to do with time, just where things occur relatively. Some
of the chords may be a little off, but most of them sound alright. It
sounds like Alex has his guitar with a very slight distortion, reverb
(of course) and maybe even some Echo/Delay. The amp settings have the
treble (7-8) and midrange (8-9) pretty high and the bass kind of low
(3-4). This gives the guitar a lighter sound and makes the notes sound
clearer, but the chords sound somewhat distorted.

/ = An upslide, indicates slide up towards the lower numbered frets
5h7 or 9p7 = A hammeron or pulloff to the second number
9^ = Indicates a downbend on the whammy, more means a bigger downbend
vvvv = A whammy bar effect
<15> = A pair of parenthesis indicates a harmonic
(21) = A note that is held into the next bar or an optional note
x = This indicates a muted note, usually the last fretted note played
Q, H, F = Appears after note, indicates quarter bend, half bend, or full
bend
R = Indicates releasing a bent not back to its original pitch
~ = A slight vibrato with left hand
