A Little Piece of Heaven (Acoustic) – by A7X

Nobody posted an Acoustic Version for this - so I decided to do it - it's a really sweet
with a very broadway feel to it.  This is my first tab, btw, and I think i got it
perfect, for an acoustic version at least.  Bear in mind that the real song is mostly
and woodwinds of an orchestra, so the timbre will sound very different on an acoustic
 Thus if there is a real problem with this tab, then by all means bitch about it.  But
something doesn't sound good simply because it's originally arranged for orchestra, then
is nothing to bitch about.

You’ll get a feel for the strumming by listening to the song – for the best sound, play
chord as a bar chord, except for C Major and occasionally A Major (you’ll figure out
– it’s more of a practical issue for ease of chord change).  Some bar chords, for
Fm, should be played in 2 different ways, with the root on either the 5th or 6th string,
on the part of the song you are playing.  You’ll see by playing around with it what
best.

WARNING - ORIGINALLY EVERY SINGLE CHORD WAS RIGHT ABOVE THE EXACT SYLLABLE THAT YOU ARE
TO CHANGE CHORDS ON - HOWEVER ULTIMATE-GUITAR IS BEING REALLY LAME AND WON'T SHOW THAT
I PREVIEW THESE TABS - SO IT WILL PROBABLY COME OUT WHEN I POST IT WITH ALL CHORDS FOR
LINE BUNCHED UP IN THE BEGINNING OF THE LINE, AND OCCASIONALLY SOME CHORDS WILL BE ON
WRONG LINE - NEVERTHELESS THEY WILL ALL BE IN SEQUENTIAL ORDER - LISTEN TO THE SONG AND
HEAR WHEN TO CHANGE CHORDS - I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE FOR ULTIMATE GUITAR'S BULLCRAP
or maybe there is a solution to this, and the problem is my tabbing ineptitude = ).  
i'll shutup now.

(here the strings of the orchestra do a walk down of sorts – I simplified it for
cuz it’s really hard to sing to if you play the real riff)

And afterward (during the oooooohh-ing):

In this part the strings of the orchestra do that same walk down – substitute it with
I said to use previously for “it goes on and on and on”

Do you take this man in death for the rest of your unnatural life?

(Yes, I do.)

Do you take this woman in death for the rest of your unnatural life?

(I do)

I now pronounce you...

End with pre-chorus and chorus
