If you guys could just help me out with that, I would be thankful!!!!! And if anybody knows it, I would also like to know what Jonny plays at the beginning, when his hands are strumming up and down super fast!!! THANKS!!!!! :D

I just found this video and it seems like these are the right chords. He says that he tunes the e string to C#. The singing isnt that great, but the chords sound accurate.

What chord is he playing at :5 seconds ????

just wanted to say that your chords aren't correct, chris and that other guy are far above the 12th. and both are using the thumb for the ow e stiring (at least chris seems to love that, if you ever noticed that)

i'll try to find out for you... and me... generally everybody who'd like to know .... ah, and have a look around here, there is some threads about it already

ok, thanks. yeah, i realized that there were wrong and took them off. haha. THANKS!!

you might want to try E A D G C# C#

 

F#m: 14 16 16 14 0 0

 

Dmaj7: 10 12 12 11 0 0

 

A: 5 7 7 6 0 0

 

Esus4: 0 2 2 2 3 3

 

C#m: 9 11 11 9 0 0

 

that's a possibility

I dont know. The Dmaj7 chord doesnt sound right. am i suppost to bar the whole 10th fret or....

nope,

10 12 12 11 0 0

index ring pinky middle (open)

 

for example like that.... you could also use your thumb on the low e string ( i recommend that, because it helps sliding up and down the neck with only changing one finger)

Have you tried tuning your B string to an A. Then just playing F#m, D, A with the last two strings open the whole time.

Yeah, The E A D G C# C# works. It sounds Great!!! Thanks for you help guys!!!! Now, does anyone know what Jonny plays durring Life In Technicolor ii?

yah, he does some tremolo picking with an so far unknown effect.

maybe try delay/echo + loads and loads of reverb. i don't know the notes, but as far as i remember the song it starts kind of B|-15--16--15.........
