The Tuning is Half-Step Down, which isn't that Much, but it makes a HUGE difference when
this song
These 5 Chords are the only chords involved in playing this whole song, and the D at the
is only used in one part of the song, which is the pre-
chorus
Eb|--3------3------3------3------2-|
Bb|--3------3------3------3------3-|
Gb|--0------0------0------2------2-|
Db|--2------2------0------0------0-|
Ab|--2------3------2------0--------|
Eb|--0-------------3------2--------|
*I just checked, and It seems to be that, This intro is only played when He's doing it
but who cares, Because in my opinion its a really beautiful
guitar piece to go with the song :/ lol*
(h) Hammer On (p) Pull Off
Eb|-----------3-----------------------------------5-----------------3--------------|
Bb|--------------3-----------------------------------3--------------3--------------|
Gb|-----0-----------0-----0-----------------0-----------0-----2-----2--------------|

Eb|--0-----------------------------------3-----------------2------2h3p2p0---- <--|
last pullof/hammer on part, I realised after I put the video
up, you don't need it, but It sounds more like the original with it, it also sounds nice
you're doing the palm mute part.

The Chords you hold in place to play this part of the fingerpicking is really nice and
to play
*palm Mute*
A cold wind blows
I am shivering
My body aches
cos my heart is breaking
why is life
making me hollow
why is happiness
casting me in the shadows------>
in the shadows---->
hold on
don't turn and walk away
save me
and i cried these words and nobody came
i'm all alone
running scared
losing my way in the dark
i tried to get up
still no prayer
but i keep crashing down hard
this is my side of the story
only my side of the story
Nobody cares
nobodys here
no one will hear (Back to palm mute this bit)
my side of the story
emptiness
is all around me
i try to catch my breath
i barely surviving
i cant go on
i come undone
theres nothing left in me
hold on
don't turn and walk away
save me
and i cried these words and nobody came
i'm all alone
running scared
losing my way in the dark
but i tried to get up
still no prayer
but i keep crashing down hard
this is my side of the story
only my burden to bare
Nobody cares
nobodys here
no one will hear
my side of the story
As i hold on
as im falling
i cried these words
but nobody came
[One Strum]
I'm all alone
Running scared
<--- UP
Losing my way in the dark
I tried to get up
Still no prayer
I keeep crashing down hard
This is my side of the story
only my side of the story
my side of the story
only my side burden to bear
but nobody cares
nobodys here
no one will hear
[ Em7 - Cadd9 - G - D/F# ] <---- These chords are played multiple
depending on which version you listen to]
