    hi dude... i was watching your youtube video and at about 1:19 you went into a kinda different set of chords and melody to the the original... is this your interpretation as i think the GivenToWail chords/tab are pretty much bang on with the chords/notes Ed hits on Live At The Garden.

    well done though for posting your vid.. i enjoyed it :)

    thanks... =]

    well yea at one part it's basically the main chords just played at a different spot on the neck that is more convinient, or i might have made some slight variations. but that was done without tabs so...its not perfect...

    The Given to Wail tab never seemed exactly accurate.

    It was reallllllllllllllllllly damn close if it wasn't. I learned the song perfectly from it.

    The only part you need to worry about getting right is the interlude (I let go of the rope.. thinking that's what held me back.. and in time I've realized, it's now wrapped around my neck..."). It's a bit tricky and has some strange chords around the eigth fret.

    That's mainly the part that never made sense to me. I think he switches keys from D to F, if I'm not mistaken.

    I found that bit very hard to learn, but like lots of accurate tab, it seems wrong until you play it right, then you realise it's right. I keep forgetting how it goes, and I have to get the tab out again.
    Music is not a competetion.

    Does anyone know the chords played during the bridge we're talking about. It looks like Ed plays barre chords but I can never get it to sound just right

    If I remember correctly 2 of the chords involved are..

    Cmaj7 formation played with F as the root note....

    e--
    b-8
    g-x
    d-7
    a-8
    e--

    I think... maybe... and I think the Dformation form of G is in there.

    e-7
    b-8
    g-7

    too lazy to type it out and look it up. ;)
