Tune:At the Beginning from the motion
Picture ANASTASIA
(Although it sounds nothing like it anymore. If you want to know
why, it's because both teams changed the Key signature, Green
in C and White stayed in Db, whith no key changes like in the
actual song. They completely removed all sevenths from the chords,
although I kept the Asus4 'cause it sounds cool.)
Ok, there's two ways to play this song. Since I was on the white team, I can only tell you how to play it that way, the same way it is on the video, sort of.
Key of Db

Bridge: This is the part that inter boys love the most. The slide after "but you'll always be with me." Its on the A string, from the 13th fret down to a Db chord. Have fun with it. If you don't play it, I'm sure you'll hear some little kid sound it out on his own.

NOTE:If you're a white-teamer, and don't like to end that way, you can just repeat the last line of the song like this:
Gb Ab Db (Still Strumming)
At the beginning with you
Gb Ab Db <-----Hold all three chords
At the beginning with you
Its up to you.
