Note: Ok, this song is just piano only. But, I tabbed it into guitar
      chords. Now everyboby knows that piano can play 'melody' (I guess
      that is the correct term) very, very well but guitar is kind of
      hard to do that. Maybe, you can try play it with finger plucking
      on one chord itself. Arr... the intro is kind of hard to catch
      the beat. It is something like this, I'm not sure it could be
      wrong. Anyway, just try it. 

Intro: Dmaj Gmaj G#/Abmajor A#/Bbmajor G#/Abmajor Gmaj

Verse 1:

Dmaj
Honey,

            Gsus Amaj Dmaj
It's been a long time coming,

      Gsus  Amaj Dmaj 
And I can't stop now,

       Gsus Amaj Dmaj
Such a long time running,

      Gsus  Emin Dmaj
And I can't stop now,

Riff 1:

       Gsus    Amaj   Dmaj
Do you hear my heart beating,

        Gsus Emaj Dmaj
Can you hear that sound,

        Gsus  Amaj Dmaj
Cause I can't help thinking,

       Gsus  A7   Dmaj
That I don't look down,

Chorus:

         Gsus
And then I looked up at the sun,

            Dmaj
And I could see,

  Bmin                                 Emin
The way that gravity turns for you and me,

         Gsus
And then I looked up at the sky,

            Dmaj
And saw the sun,

      Bmin                             Emin
And the way that gravity turns on everyone,

        A7
On everyone,

Verse 2:

Dmaj
Baby,

            Gsus Amaj  Dmaj
It's been a long time waiting,

       Gsus  Amaj Dmaj
Such a long, long time,

      Gsus  Amaj Dmaj
And I can't stop smiling,

     Gsus  Emin Dmaj
No I can't stop now,

Riff 2:

       Gsus    Amaj  Dmaj
Do you hear my heart beating,

          Gsus Emin Dmaj
Oh do you hear that sound,

         Gsus  Amaj Dmaj
'Cause I can't stop crying,

      Gsus  A7   Dmaj
And I won't look down,

Chorus:

         Gsus  
And then I looked up at the sun,

            Dmaj
And I could see,

   Bmin
Oh the way that gravity turns,

           Emin
On you and me,

         Gsus
And then I looked at the sun,

            Dmaj
And saw the sky,

    Bmin                                 Emin
And the way that gravity pulls on you and I,

          A7    
On you and I,

Note: In the end, these are the running chords, but there is a piano
      tabs going on at the same time. I think guitar can't do that.
      Can anybody tell me how to strum & pluck at the same time just to
      make it sound like the piano too. So you need two guitarist. One
      will strum & while the other pluck. 

Ending:

Guitar 1: Dmaj Gmaj G#/Abmajor A#/Bbmajor G#/Abmajor Gmaj

Guitar 2:

e|-11---10-10-10-10-10---8--------------- |
b|----9----------------8---11-11-9-9-8-4- |
G|--------------------------------------- |Repeat this
D|--------------------------------------- |tab two times.
A|--------------------------------------- |
E|--------------------------------------- |

Note: For guitar 2, start when guitar 1 play 2nd barr of Dmaj. For
      better understanding listen to the song. Enjoy!
