First tab, blah blah etc. This isn't exactly how it's played in the song but it's a nice
way to play it one one guitar.
Obviously you'll want UltimatePiano if you're after a proper accurate version.
Standard tuning but - CAPO 2nd FRET!
Chords:
D: xx0232
A: x02220
G: 320022

VERSE
[same strum frequency as intro but go for the whole chord, and put in some frills like
the chorus - mess around with the B string frets 0,2 and 3 as well, it all sounds good]
D
||: Let us make amends
A
We're not overly good friends
G D5
But it's not heaven without you
D
You can have it all
A
We'll see mountains fall
G
But it's not heaven without you :||
[Do a little quiet bit on the top 2 strings, just a D with the little riff or something,
come in loudly and with a bit faster strumming frequency]:
D
It's a symphony distorting
A
When we're not talking
G D5
But its not heaven without you
CHORUS
[Another little quiet fill bit first, then go loud again, with fast strumming]:
G
There's just something different
Asus
With the air about you
The signs, the shapes, the numbers
G
They never give me a clue
A
You can have it all
G
And I'm not burning benches
Asus
'Cause the ash will make me choke
It was me who always spluttered
G
Every time we spoke, we spoke
A
You can have it all
Do another G - A, fast strumming and loud, and end on an Asus.
