Hi!

I haven't seen any of these threads ever since I got here.. but someone has to be the first.
I could really use some help with picking out the last chord(s) in a song I'm currently trying to learn.

I've learned the entire song except the last part.

08- Pegasus - YouTube

As you see, it's really the end of the song.
Appreciates all the help I can get :)

Tuning: E

What part did you want me to clarify?
If you listen closely, there is one note on the guitar that is "climbing", on top of that there's always the same overtone throughout this climb. The overtone I already know which one it is, but that climbing note(s) are trickier to nail :/

Ending in A you say, I'll play around with that :)

It sounds to me like an A Major arpeggio, (partial E Major shape barre chord, 5th fret). What I think is a second guitar is sliding into a B (G string, 4th fret) and again sliding from that B up to C#, arpeggiating inbetween with the E and A above (B and E strings 5th fret).

That's what I'd do anyway.

You sir, are a champ. Thanks a lot! Sounds almost exactly like it! Except the second guitar, I think starts at an F on the G string, then slides up to the B and C#, while alternating with E and A like you said :)
