 There's a higher melody part going on on top of the guitars which I think
 is a keyboard / synthesizer, though it sounds more like a stringed
 instrument at parts. Unfortunately, I lack the patience to write out
 notes (plus, I have never played piano, so my *mad* ;) violin skills
 can't really help me out)
 
 Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
 Time: (2/4)
 Beat is around 88 (?) not sure, I tend to start it there.
 * In any case, it isn't too fast. As always, it can be
 played at whichever tempo you like.

 VERSE
 
 Pretty sure that it's just the INTRO played 4 times
 For the vocals, they begin on beat 2 of the first repetition of the line
 (time signature as 2/4)
 On the last line before going into the CHORUS, continue the same fingering
 but with C#, E/B, and E (thanks to Brent)
 
 C# E/B E 
    

 e --0-------0-----0-------
 B --0-------0-----0-------
 G --4-------9(8)--9-------
 D --4-------9(8)--9-------
 A --2-------6-----7-------
 E ----------------0-------
 

 
 "and all I want is You" with (all) and (You) falling on E/B and E.
 
 BRIDGE
 Play the INTRO part 4 times. This is a building up period. Words start
 with "I come to you with all .." and the synthesizer joins in with F
 and G syncopated quarters (single notes, no chords).
 During the 4TH (LAST) repetition on the third measure some D# and E comes
 in to lead into the chorus. I think the acoustic drops out here and is
 replaced by electric (that's what I do; I prefer doing the picking
 on an acoustic).
 
 CHORUS
 
 For the Synthesizer part, I'm sure whoever's playing the keys will have
 an easy time playing along -- the notes are pretty clear (though not so
 much for me).
 
 E B C#m(G#?) A (E) (B ..

 e --7------7---4---4------5--- you can ------0---
 B --9------7---5---4------5--- opt to -------0---
 G --9------8---6---6------6--- leave the ----9---
 D --9------9---6---6------7--- high e and ---9---
 A --7------9---4---6------7--- B open. ------7---
 E --7------7---4---4------5--- (as usual) ---0---
 

 
 For the first repetition of the chorus, it is the same picking order as
 before, but using these variations on the chorus chords (different positions
 -- sometimes)

 e --0------0------0------0-- *****************************************
 B --0------0------0------0-- or you can choose to play this sequence
 G --9------4------6------2-- always. I don't like to shift as much
 D --9------4------6------2-- so when it's hard strokes (no picking),
 A --7------2------4------0-- I tend to stay higher on the B5 and F5.
 E --0------0------0------0-- *****************************************
 

 
 CHORUS PART 2
 If you seem to have a spot that doesn't fit, you should play this instead
 of continuing with the first CHORUS. This shuold for the most part be
 handled by the synthesizer -- I'm not sure what the guitar plays during
 this -- maybe nothing (?)
 
 A B Cm 
    

 e --0(5)--0(7)---0(9)--
 B --0(5)--0(7)---0(9)--
 G --6-----8------9-----
 D --7-----9------11----
 A --7-----9------11----
 E --5-----7------9-----
 

 
 ENDING
 After a bunch of CHORUS / BRIDGE the acoustic comes back for the INTRO
 (the last two lines of lyrics)
 
 I know this tab isn't perfect but it's pretty close -- if you have updates
 or corrections please send them to me. thanks :)
