I suggest watching http://www.youtube.com/watch'v=BB3hXrW_jz8 to get timings and such. intro - slow build up: Brenden starts by plucking and building up to a G chord While Jake plays some harmonics that i can't quite make out. ----------------------------------------------------| ----------------------8-8-8-------------8-8-8-8-8-8-| 7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-| ----------------5-5-5-5-5-5--4-4-4-4-4--8-8-8-8-8-8-| ----------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------| G-Gm-d This part is pretty easy. Brenden strums a G, Gm, D (sometimes standard d, sometimes a power chord with a B bass note on the 6th string) while Jake lays a reverse arpeggio on the G and G minor something like this: ---------------------------------------------| 3--------3-----------------------------------| --4--------3-------7-------------------------| ----5--------5-----7-------------------------| ------5--------5---5-------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| That's the basis of the intro/chrous parts. Jake does a lot of improv, particularly around the D chord in the chorus chords. During the verses Brenden plays some arpeggio around the following chord forms D Bb/Gm G 2-------0----3-------0----3----| 3-------3----3-------3----3----| 2-------0-OR-0-------0-or-0----| --------0----0-------0----0----| --------1----1-------x----x----| ---------------------3----3----| The first couple of verses are just Joel playing keys, but if you are playing on an acoustic by yourself you can play as well:
I hope its tDrue but Bb/Gmill make dueG with the things that i haDve heard Bb/Gm G so if i Ddo this rBb/Gmight then Gi might get what i deDserve Bb/Gm G

The Chorus chords continue until the end
