MosesTheMarshmallow · December 30, 2010

Thanks zergio! That's totally spot on (based on the ~2 chords I had figured out so far :p)

Zergio107 · December 30, 2010

thanks man this is awesome

Thanks zergio! That's totally spot on (based on the ~2 chords I had figured out so far :p)

XD

You're wlecome, I'm glad to help you.

[/url]

Nice cover man, nice guitar too, it's a yamaha right?

MosesTheMarshmallow · December 31, 2010

Oop right before the "did you want me to change part" shouldn't there be a B7 chord of some sort? I'd play it as xx0200

Zergio107 · January 1, 2011

Oh yeah that's right, thanks again man for correcting me.

If you have any questions or corrections let me know please.

Graytuna · January 2, 2011

Thanks, I've been looking for some good Shiver tabs/chords for a while now so this is great.

Just a beginner-question though! How are you supposed to play these chords? (Since it says that the A-string shouldn't be played at all) Do you mute that string somehow or is there another way to play them?

MosesTheMarshmallow · January 3, 2011

You play the notes on the E string using your thumb. And then you use your thumb to reach out just a bit more to mute the A string.

Look up a video of the band playing Coldplay live and you'll know what I mean. Happy hunting. :)

Zergio107 · January 3, 2011

Yeah, thats right you have to use your thumb.

vivianromen · January 6, 2011

this is awesome

MosesTheMarshmallow · January 10, 2011

A couple corrections based on the Liverpool performance:

-The B/F# chord in the prechorus should be 2x4400 as opposed to 4x4400 as it is now and it's more correct to name it F#6sus4.

-The F#m13 in the same place should be named F#13 (because it is major and not minor) and be tabbed as 2x2320 instead of 2x2400.

And you should change the name of the B7add11 chord to Aadd11 or something. I'm not trying to nitpick, but that chord is very similar to the Aadd9 and it's definitely an A-based chord so its name should reflect that.

Jin256 · January 10, 2011

Are you sure it's not 2x2300?

MosesTheMarshmallow · January 10, 2011

Either one definitely sounds alright, but I think your one is more correct Jin because Chris tends to leave the B and e strings open, and that's what it's looking like in live videos. So 2x2300 it is.

Jin256 · January 10, 2011

Strawberry swings forever huh?

MosesTheMarshmallow · January 11, 2011

Why yes. :p

Let me take you down,

Cause I'm walking to

Strawberry Swing,

Everything was so precious,

Nothing to get hung about...

:p

Zergio107 · January 11, 2011

A couple corrections based on the Liverpool performance:

-The B/F# chord in the prechorus should be 2x4400 as opposed to 4x4400 as it is now and it's more correct to name it F#6sus4.

I already knew it, but when I was writting it I got confussed because I did it as fast as I could.

Don't worry, I'll correct the tab right now... :)

-The F#m13 in the same place should be named F#13 (because it is major and not minor) and be tabbed as 2x2320 instead of 2x2400.

I've seen the video of liverpool and I'm sure is 2x2400 maybe you've saw bad

And for the chord names corrections:

Well to get the chord names, I used the Guitar Pro 5 chord namer

Thanks again for the corrections.

Sorry if my english is bad

Jin256 · January 11, 2011

@Moses That's funny, you should make a mix song of those two. Hint (They can both be played on Capo 1)

@Zergio Well I don't know what you saw but from the Shiver performance on an early radio show you can see he does a 2x2300

MosesTheMarshmallow · January 11, 2011

Thanks Zergio, and no worries, this is a really good tab and such minor mistakes are unavoidable with such a complicated song.

Yeah for the F# both sound right and work, but if you watch the way his hand switches at Liverpool, he lifts up all of his fingers besides his thumbs to go from the 2x2300 to the 2x4400 which makes it unlikely that he's playing 2x2400.

Zergio107 · January 12, 2011

Oh yes, You're totally right, thanks again man.

Zergio107 · February 9, 2011

Watching some live performances of Shiver I got some corrections in the Break.

I've posted the corrections on the first page.

I still working in the lead guitar...

(sorry if my english is bad)

Jin256 · February 9, 2011

The most perfected tab on the universe.

Zergio107 · February 9, 2011

Thanks man, You and Moses helped to me to get this perfect XD

Jin256 · February 9, 2011

No prob. And in Bigger Stronger, I think that one chord you might be looking for is : Cmaj7/G 332000

eduardobc · February 10, 2011

Try this(202200) on the intro after the (202201)

I think it sounds perfect!
