play the bar chords if you want to pick the way he does in the song . if you just
strum play the chords however you like!

haven’t included the second guitar , it’s mostly just distorted chords that are let
to ring out . there’s a little bit of lead towards the end as well .

intro :
E | C#m x2

verse :

E
this magic moment
C#m
so different and so new
A
was like any other
B
until i met you
E
and then it happened
C#m
it took me by surprise
A
i knew that you felt it too
B
i could see it by the look in your eyes

sweeter than wine

softer than a summer’s night
