I fingerpick it [2 beats per pattern]. There are a couple of places where a chord only gets 1 beat - I usually just squeeze the chord [pluck the 4 strings I would've picked simultaneously].
Verse: | |F#m | | Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven
| |F#m | | Would it be the same if I saw you in Heaven
Chorus: | | | | | I must be strong and carry on
| |sus | | Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven
| | |
Bridge: | | | | | Time can bring you down Time can bend your knees
| | | | | Time can break your heart Have you beggin please beggin please
There's more lyrics - but this'll give you the basic chord structure. The |'s are my attempt at giving a mild sense of rhythym - there's 4 beats between |'s. G/B means a G chord with a B in the bass. I finger both the E/G# and the C#/E# chords in a open D chord shape with the thumb wrapped around to the 6th string. Like this:
C#/E# The E/G# is the same thing played at the --X-X------ 4th fret T | | 1 | 2 ----------- | | | | 3 |
Eric's version is of course full of little runs and such! I hope this helps get you started!!!!!
