These are the chords for the verse and chorus. You will have to get the rhythm from listening to the song.
By the way…Steve Howe is playing like three guitars to get these chord soundings so you’ll have to mess around with it. The use of harmonics is present.

Em  F#m  G  F#m  G  F#m  Em
Em  F#m  G  F#m  Em                   etc.

“Your way…”
G  F#m  Am  Bm  C  Bm  C  Bm  Am
Bm  Bm/A  Gmaj7  F/G  Em7 F#m7
Gmaj7  F#m7  Gmaj7 F#m7  Em7
F#m  Gmaj7  Am7  Bm7  Em7

“Call it…”
G  C/E  F  C/E F  C/E  G
C/E  F  C/E  Bb  G

I gave you a 5 cause you included in the chords and bridge but i dont believe there is a slide after the 5h7p5. Other than that, Great TAb!

At the very beginning in the intro:


E- -----'


B- -----'


G- -----'


D- ----------


A- ----------


E- '-----





Where signifies harmonic and ' signifies to let ring.

My bad. Apparently these things delete the number in between when posted. I meant to have a 12th fret posted before each of the let rings to signify natural sustained harmonics.


Good job on the chords in this tab.

seems pretty accurate...except the first measure of the main riff the guitarist plays harmonics, not chords. He plays the chords after the first bridge on the second measure of the main riff.

this is a good tab, but, in the very begining, you can play that same things on the 10th and 12th frets of the b and g strings, that way, when you do the harmonics, everythings right there
