Can anyone help me figure out the tabs for this song...ive got most of it worked out but I can't figure out the bridge. Thanks

PM me with what you have. I'm pretty good at working out stuff in the middle -- it's the starting point that slays me every time!! I'll give it a go. Also, If Kyle has time, the boy is a whiz!!

I'm suspecting that the bridge involves the minor chords. She seems to favor the pattern Em-C-G-D or Am-C-G-D so I would work with those or some variation thereof. She also uses the Bm and Cm chord a lot in her songs. That's usually how I work her stuff out -- I look at what she's done in the past.

the song's chords are a lot like the ones used in Kiss the Flame except in Thump Thump she uses a capo on 4.

Em1 Em9 Em Dsus4 D Dsus2
E|-3-| E|-2-| E|-0-| E|-3-| E|-2-| E|-0-|
B|-3-| B|-3-| B|-3-| B|-3-| B|-3-| B|-3-|
G|-0-| G|-0-| G|-0-| G|-2-| G|-2-| G|-2-|
D|-2-| D|-2-| D|-2-| D|-0-| D|-0-| D|-0-|
A|-0-| A|-0-| A|-0-| A|---| A|---| A|---|
E|-0-| E|-0-| E|-0-| E|---| E|---| E|---|

The song intros with the D, Dsus2, D, Dsus2, Em1, Em9, Em, Em9

This (D) feeling in my (Dsus2) heart can't (D) start to des-(Dsus2)-cribe

what you (Em1) mean to me (Em9, Em) sweet myster-(Em9)-y

When I'm (D) lying in my (Dsus2) bed, (D) the thought that fill my

(Dsus2) head, Well they're (Em1) extacy,(Em9) baby (Em)can't you (Em9)see.

I (D)think I (Dsus2)will, I (D)think I (Dsus2) might let (Em1) go (Em9, Em)

... (Em9) let myself (D)fall

From there she uses, I think, two different chords that I can't make out. Thank for helping out with this!

ps- I know some of the chord names above are not correct, I just don't know what they are really called...you get the point though...right?
