Does anyone know if there are sheets for the part Chris plays throughout the song?

 

It's probably a longshot but I really want them.:D

he basically just plays the chords and/or imitates the strings riff with a bit of improv. if you need those, you can look them up somewhere like tabnabber. I would look them up for you now but I'm in desperate need of sleep...

Pretty much plays the guitar line. Lead I think.

But the piano is a little different...

Its hard to say, he pretty much just adds his own riff to the existing song. I couldn't play that line on guitar even if I wanted to, so I can't check for you.

 

Its basically improvising, just looked for the piano chords for Bitter Sweet Sympany, it would sound better on its own.

Can no one figure out the piano riff Chris is playing?

If you're talking about the strings riff he imitates, the notes are G#, B, G#, A, F#, A, D, A, D, C#, A, C# played over the chords E, Bm7, D, A. With loads of improvisation on Chris's part.

from what i can see he just plays the strings part of the song on piano.

there's a simple but right tutorial here[ame=
