Right - at about 3:27 on the Cd, there is a break. Matt picks the strings

like this. Its never all picking , sometimes he strums parts of it,

particularly the Em and C. Listen the the Cd to hear what I mean

G F/C Em7 Cadd9

E 3 --------------1-------- 0--- --------------------------

A -------------------------------- -----3------------------

D ---0---------------0-------2----------2-----------------

G ----0---------------0-------0----------0----------------

B -----3 (let ring)-----1-------1----------3---------------

E --------------------------------------------------------

Alternate between the picking and strumming at will!

So the chords for the break at 3:27 go like this.

G F/C Em7 Cadd9

(I'm in Lo----ve)

G F/C Em7 Caad9

I'm so in love with you ooh yeah Jesus I'm in love

G F/C Em7 caad9

I love you Lord

G F/C Em7 caad9

(NOTE:- no definite lyrics here - just beautiful layered voices)

G F/C Em C

And I'll stand in awe of you

G F/C Em C

Yes I'll stand in awe of you

G F/C Em C

Yes I'll stand in awe of you

G F/C Em C

Yes I'll stand in awe of you

Am7 Em Caad9

And I'll let my words be few

Am7 Em Caad9 D Caad9 G

Jesus I am so in love with you

Am7 Em Caad9 D G

Jesus I am so in love with you

(Same pick pattern as before)

G F/C Em7 Caad9

So in Love with you

G F/C Em7 Caad9

(The voices return!)

G F/C Em7 Caad9

Am7 Em Caad9

And I'll let my words be few

Am7 Em Caad9 D G (Pick pattern again!)

The end pick pattern is slightly different!

D--0-----------0--------2----2----0

G---0-----------0--------0----0---0

B----3-----------3--------3----3--3

E---------------------------------3

As you can see I have really changed that much from Chris P's version,

except for 2 obvious things. Firstly, on the album there is a bass ascend

on the first G - up to Eb. This is not played on the guitar but on a piano,

but play the chord I have written and It sounds alright. Secondly, listening

to the chorus, there is definitely an F in there. I reckon there are 2

guitars, one playing the F/C and the other playing the C. But that's just

my opinion....
