Chords

Please note this Tuning which I cannot select myself: A#, G#, C#, F#, A#, D# This is how i learned to play it. Whether a guitar is really playing the low A#, I dunno. However, I think it sounds decent. The chorus: I hear 2 guitars, but I can't make it out I think I am getting lost following Nathan's voice more than finding the notes... Help please, if you can. I welcome your criticisms, and improvements. Thanks [Verse 1]
