Here's where things get a bit tricky, because the tabs for these sections are very
similar, but not quite the same. For the following lines:
(And I will never.../And you won't read.../never thought I could.../I don't know where...)
Play:
e--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3--------------------------------|
G--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------------------|
D-------------------------0---0--------------------------------------------------|
A-3---3---2---2---0---0----------------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------3---3---3---3----------------------------------|
But for the lines:
(A movie queen.../And if you read between...)
Play:
e--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3----------------|
G--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---------------|
D-------------------------0---0--------------------------------------------------|
A-3---3---2---2---0---0-------------------3---3----------------------------------|
E---------------------------------0---0-----------3---3---3---3------------------|
For those who just want straight chords, my version translated from the tabs above is:
(first tab): G F G F
(second tab): G G C D Em C G
(third tab): C C/B Am D G
(fourth tab): C C/B Am D Em C G
Hope this helps! :)
