Anybody have a tab of the Elevation version of The Fly?

I really love the new version of The Fly, and I know it's in a new key, but I can't quite get it all down. Can anyone help?

I think this was posted elsewhere, but from memory (my guitar is as work ), the main three chords are:

Fm, A, D.

Play them, all as A barre chords. Fm up to high A, down to D.

Just do the usual Edge Delay/Harmony kinda thing. It's beautiful. I love playing it.

Hope that helps.

it seems like the enitire song was pushed up a string. i.e. instead of playing the 0--12--12--10h-12--10h-12--10 on the low E string, he plays the same riff in the A string. similarly with the solo, since there is no 7th string, he plays something like 20--19--15--12 which is the same as 15-14-10-12 if it were on a seventh string. RufusYoungblood is right about the chords for the chorus. hope this helps.

It be in A instead of E. Transpose the stuff you play for the album version a major 4th and boom! You're there.

Chorus chords: C#m, E, A

Intro: Pick out the above ^^ (For E, start on the E note, for A on the A string)

It's easy. The rest of the song is tabbed else where, although it may vary slightly .
