Ed Sheeran
All Of The Stars (ver 8) Chords
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
All Of The Stars - Ed Sheeran
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've watched a few live versions and this is how he actually plays it.
As seen in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhxiFy0A_3Q
Capo on the 2nd fret, the whole song is based on a C#9 barre chord, the chords are:
| F# | C# | A# | G# |
E| 0 | x | 4 | 2 |
A| x | 2 | x | x |
D| 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
G| 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
B| x | x | x | x |
E| x | x | x | x |
My interpretation of the picking pattern:
He starts every beat by picking the bass note of the chord twice then it goes like this:
C E-----------------
A B-----------------
P G--------4-----4--
O D----------4------
A-----------------
2 E---0-0------0----
He also plays it like this:
C E-----------------
A B-----------------
P G--------4-----4--
O D-----4----4------
A-----------------
2 E---0-------0-----
The chord used for the example was the F#, it goes the same for every other chord in the song.
There's also a little riff/run every second line of the verse (and I'm staring at the moon etc)
C E-------------------------
A B-------------------------
P G-------4------4-------4--
O D-------------------------
A-------------------------
2 E---4-4----2-2----0-0-----
After that it goes back to the normal picking pattern.

F# C#
It's just another night
A#m G# F#
and I'm staring at the moon
C# G#
I saw a shooting star and thought of you
F# C#
I sang a lullaby
A#m G# F# C#
By the waterside and knew
G#
if you were here I'd sing to you
F# C#
You're on the other side
A#m G# F# C#
as the skyline splits in two
G#
miles away from seeing you
F# C#
But I can see the stars
A#m G# F#
from America
C# G#
I wondered do you see them too
C#
So open your eyes and see
G#
the way our horizons meet
A#m
and all of the lights will lead
F#
into the night with me
C#
And I know these scars will bleed
G#
But both of our hearts believe
A#m F# C# G#
All of these stars will die as one
F# C#
I can hear your heart
A#m G# F#
on the radio
C# G#
They're playing chasing cars and I thought of us
F# C#
Back to the time
A#m G# F# C#
you were lying next to me
G#
I looked across and fell in love
F# C#
You saw I took your hand
A#m G# F# C#
Back through lamp lit streets and knew
G#
Everything led back to you
F# C#
So can you see the stars
A#m G# F# C#
Over Amsterdam
G#
you're the song my heart is beating too
C#
So open your eyes and see
G#
the way our horizons meet
A#m
and all of the lights will lead
F#
into the night with me
C#
And I know these scars will bleed
G#
But both of our hearts believe
A#m F# C# G#
All of these stars will die as one
C# A#m C#
And all you know
F# G# C#
and all
F# C#
But I can see the stars
A#m G# F#
from America
