Repeat verse. Another guitar plays 
the same chords, very staccato. The 
G#m is
then played an octave lower 
(466444).
In the second chorus, after 'When 
you walk in the room', these strings
 are
notable:
e|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||--
B|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||--
G|-10-11-10-8-------|           
D|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||--
A|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||--

e|------| 
B|------| 
G|        
D|11-9--| 
A|------| 
E|------| 

At the end, the F# chord will get 
backed by an extra guitar playing 
the chord
one octave lower (244322).
E|E|E|E|E|E|----------|||||| 


Bridge
E|E|E|E|E|E|----------|||||| 

Follow the same chords as during the
 chorus (but without the F#). You 
may
like to play the bass line at the 
beginning. There is more, obviously,
 but
there are bass tabs for that:
e|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||----
B|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||----
G|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||----
D|-7-6E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||
A|-----9-7-9-----|                
E|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||-9--

Then there is this very cool string 
part. To play some part of it on 
guitar,
I think it's something like this:
e|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||
B|-10-9E|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------|
G|------9-9\8E|E|E|E|E|E|-------

-----|                      
E|E|----------||||||------| 

This is played a second time later 
on, with this right behind it, 
repeated a
couple of times:
e|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||-| 
B|---------9-|                   
G|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||-|

A|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||-| 
E|E|E|E|E|E|E|----------||||||-| 

Bridge ends on the C#-chord 
(x4666x).

Then there is some sort of more re
