Default In These Arms - Main Riff?
Can anyone please tell me the main riff for 'In These Arms', or derect me to a guitar tab that has it. I'm dying to know what it is

Cheers Matt.

It's something with E and A. Try to move a normal D chords two frets up (so you get an E). That sounds pretty close in some parts.

well, I've got notes for in these arms
but it's piano notes...

above the lines there are letters which look like guitar tabs, might this be possible?(sorry, I don't have a clue about Guitars?)

if so there is an other problem: it's without lyrics and I can't try them out as I don't have a piano at the moment

I could give you all tabs but please tell me before if you really want to have it

I'll have to have a go at In These Arms on the bass. Should be easy. It sounds good but simple.

Just so you guys know, there is a hidden forum (Music) in here that discusses this sort of thing. You can join it and you would probably enjoy it. There needs to be some new blood in there.

Not quite right. It's closer to

Code:
|-------------2----|
|-5-----------2----|
|-4--4--4-----2----|
|-2--2--4--2--2----|
|-2--2--2-----4----|
|-0-----------0----|
so it's actually E and F#m7.

And the bass plays something like
Code:
|---------------------------|
|-2-2---2-2---2-------2-2---|
|-----2-----2---2---2-------| etc.
|-----------------0---------|
