James Blunt Carry You Home Guitar Tab

I was playing with the other tab posted on here and figured out it sounds better with a
on 7th and different chords not the same as the original tabber, this is the first time
tried figuring out a tab, any comments bad or good is fine with me, and corrections, Thanks.
[Edit] you can use D chord instead of the Bm too it sounds better with it actually

Absolutely brilliant track, definitely one of the best. Slight error in the lyrics, to me it sounds like..."Trouble is the only way, it's down, down, down". Also, "And they're all those pretty New York City lights.

This is becoming my fav song on All The Lost Souls. Another song about a girl and her troubles but thankfully I don't think it's too similar to his other tracks. I think the best written part is the bit about New York. I think some of the lyrics are a little off, but I'm not sure. i.e. I think it's "And they're all so pretty in NYC tonight...taken from the world tonight"...although actually I like "to light" better.
