    D/A: X04230
    E: 022100
    D: XX0232
    G5/A: X0503X

    Start and verses are
    A D/A

    Chorus(love dont play)
    E A E A D

    Outro:

    G5/A A

    Hope that helps, I have the book for it so its right. Must get that album out again cos its brilliant to say the least!

    Oh the tones :)
    Joe: G will work too, its just the slash chord means the bass is playing an A while the guitar it playing the G5.

    I was only explaining that for the benifit of people that dont understand what the slash means.
    Anyway, Ryan himself wrote the song using a G and probably plays it that way but on the album its definitely what I originally wrote in my reply.
    I never thought a simple reply to someone looking for chords would cause such insult.
