Ok so this is my first tab and it's going to be really shoddy but you'll get it, I
Please excuse my lack of understanding as far as musical jargon is concerned (and the poor humor).
This tab is for this verion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xa71v8tyYQ
Verses
The first part of of each verse is ascending then descending as you may have noticed;
the notes are played according to the ascending/descending nature of the verses. Once you
this you'll understand.
The first chord is an A.

And right at the end of the verse when he goes "watch everything change around me, watch
change around me, yeah" he holds some form of D so you can play any form of D that you
or if you're cool you can play this there:
x|----0
x|----5
x|----4
x|----2
x|----5
x|----0
and then proceed directly to the

Funky Variation near the end;
These are the chords for the funky variation at the end; there is a C# thrown in which
oh so delicate; apt composing in my opinion: A, C# F#m, D, Dm, and the final chord is an A
x----5----9-----9-----10----5----5-|

x----7----11----11----12----7----7-|
