First Verse:



   Pick the Dsus2 chord, making sure to let the low D ring.  

Occasionally hammer on the 2nd and 3rd fret fingerings for the 

D and Dsus4 chords.



	  Dsus2

	Desperate for changing



	Starving for truth

	  D

	I'm closer to where i started



	Chasing after you



  Chorus 1:



    for this chorus continue the picking pattern for the first chorus.

	   Dsus2	           Asus2/A   D   

	I'm falling even more in love with you

	  	  G                      D

	I'm letting go of all i've held on to	

	  D  Dsus4 D  Dsus2     A	     D	

	I'm standing here until you make me move

	      D		   G              D  

	I'm hanging by a moment here with you



Second Verse:



	Same pattern as first verse.

	  Dsus2

	Forgeting all i'm lacking 

	   D             Dsus2

	Completely incomplete

	   D			Dsus2

	I'll take your invitation

			D

	You take all of me





   Chorus 2:

	No picking pattern, straight strumming.  

Same vocals though.  just more lyrics.



	 Dsus2	           Asus2/A   D   

	I'm falling even more in love with you

	  	  G                      D

	I'm letting go of all i've held on to	

	  D  Dsus4 D  Dsus2     A	     D	

	I'm standing here until you make me move

	      D		   G              D  

	I'm hanging by a moment here with you

	  Dsus2	           Asus2/A   D   

	I'm living for the only thing i know

		  G                      D

	I'm running and not quite sure where to go

	   D  Dsus4 D  Dsus2     A	     D	

	And i don't know what i'm diving into

	       D	 G              D 

	Just hanging by a moment here with you





	Bridge:  Okay, this is a bit stronger strumming, 

vocals up an octave from what they have been



				  D

	There's nothing else to lose

				 A D

	There's nothing else to find

				 G

	There's nothing in the world

				A D

 	That could change my mind



   Now use more of the picking pattern again, emphasise the bass notes

 of the chords, back to lower octave in vocals.

	                D G A D

	There is nothin else

			  D

	There is nothin else



   Intro picking pattern more



	Repeat first verse.





   Chorus 2:

	No picking pattern, straight strumming.  

 Sing chorus vocals an octave up.  



	 Dsus2	           Asus2/A   D   

	I'm falling even more in love with you

	  	  G                      D

	I'm letting go of all i've held on to	

	  D  Dsus4 D  Dsus2     A	     D	

	I'm standing here until you make me move

	      D		   G              D  

	I'm hanging by a moment here with you

	  Dsus2	           Asus2/A   D   

	I'm living for the only thing i know

		  G                      D

	I'm running and not quite sure where to go

	   D  Dsus4 D  Dsus2     A	     D	

	And i don't know what i'm diving into

	       D	 G              D 

	Just hanging by a moment here with you



	 D	 G              D 

	Just hanging by a moment here with you



   The Outro is basically the same picking pattern as Intro.



   I'd listen to the CD a few times to get the particulars.
