Hey, First Tab so bear with me. This is 100%. Other tabs are using the the right
key of chords, but not the exact ones. I play along with him from the Glatonsbury

Chords:
Em: Cadd9: Gmaj Dsus4
e--3---- e--3---- e--3---- e--3----|
B--3---- B--3---- B--3---- B--3----|
G--0---- G--0---- G--0---- G--2----|
D--2---- D--2---- D--0---- D--0----|
A--2---- A--3---- A--2---- A--0----|
E--0---- E--X---- E--3---- E--2----|
**During the Cadd9, He always hammer ons the D string twice.**
***Every Em always starts one beat ahead of the lyrics***
In The Sun:
Em Cadd9
I picture you In The Sun
Gmaj Dsus4
Wondering, what went wrong
Em Cadd9
And falling down on your knees
Gmaj Dsus4
Asking for, Sympathy
Em Cadd9 Gmaj
And trying to find anything, You can feel
Dsus Em
That you can believe in
Cadd9 Gmaj Dsus
May God's love be with you
Em Cadd9
Always...
(Repeat "May God's... Always x2)
Chords repeat until what he uses as the chorus...
Em Cadd9
I know I would apologize
Gmaj Dsus4
If I could, See your eyes
Em Cadd9
Cuz when you showed me myself, you know
Gmaj Dsus4
I became, someone else
Em Cadd9
But I've been caught in between
Gmaj Dsus4
All you wish for and all you need
Em Cadd9
I picture you fast asleep
Gmaj Dsus4 Em
A nightmare comes, and you can't keep awake
May God's...Always (repeat x4)
(During the "chorus", he holds the Cadd9 for 2 measures, so wind out the "Find" when
singing it)
Cadd9 Gmaj
Cuz if I find... If I find my way
Dsus4 Cadd9
How much will I find?
(Repeat x2)
Cadd9
... will I Find You
Gmaj Dsus4
You...
(Wind out the "You" for both the Gmaj and the Dsus4. Repeat x2)
Interlude, 4 measures
Em Cadd9 Gmaj Dsus4
Em Cadd9 Gmaj
Oh I don't know anymore, what it's for
Dsus4
I'm not even sure
Em Cadd9 Gmaj
If there is anyone, who is In The Sun
Dsus4
Can you help me to understand?
Em Cadd9
Cuz I've been caught in between
Gmaj Dsus4
All you wish for and all you need
Em Cadd9 Gmaj Dsus4
Em Cadd9
Or maybe your not even sure, What it's for, anymore than me...
May God's love... Always (repeat x4)
Cuz if I find... How much will I find? (x2)
I'll find you, you... (repeatas many times asyou want until the end of the song. It ends
on the Em or Gmaj but whatever works for you)

spots so there is no guessing.
