Tuning: down 1/2 step (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)| Capo: none (Note that the guitar is tuned down a half-step.) There are two basic chord progressions in this song: progression 1: flat minor) (Yeah, I know the '...oh well.)

The first verse is progression 1 then progression 2 (you can hear the Eb to f to chords played right before the chorus). The chorus is progression 2. The rest of the song follows the same pattern: progression 1 in the verse, progression 2 at the end of the verse and in the chorus. In the chorus, when he repeats "You and I wouldn't change a thing..." he repeats the end of progression 2: . In the interlude/bridge (or whatever it might be called) after the second chorus, he plays . As a side note: in my opinion, if you've only got one guitarist, it sounds better to play the full chords in the chorus...something like: Eb |---2--|---2--|-0--2-|--3---| Eb |---0--|---2--|-0--0-|--3---| Bb |---3--|---3--|-0--2-|--3---| Bb |---3--|---3--|-0--0-|--3---| Gb |---2--|---4--|-0--2-|--0---| OR Gb |---2--|---4--|-0--2-|--0---| Db |---0--|---4--|-2--4-|--0---| Db |---0--|---4--|-2--4-|--0---| Ab |------|---2--|-2--4-|--2---| Ab |------|---2--|-2--4-|--2---| Eb |------|------|-0--2-|--3---| Eb |------|------|-0--x-|--3---| The full chords give a more full sound to it.
