Note to Christian Guitar: More sections added to Guitar 1; Guitar 2 added

Artist: Shawn Mcdonald
Song: Take My Hand
Album: Simply Nothing

Note: I am not 100% responsible for tabbing this song. The main beat for
guitar 1 was tabbed by Mandi9 and the guitar 2 part labeled (with capo 3)
who i've seen was tabbed by goowiz. everything else was tabbed by me.

Guitar 1:
(Capo 3)
e -----x------x-------x-------x-------x-------x-------x-------x------x
B ---3-x----3-x-----3-x-----3-x-----3-x-----3-x-----3-x-----3-x----3-x
G ---0-x----0-x-----2-x-----2-x-----0-x-----0-x-----0-x-----0-x----0-x
D -----x-2----x-2-----x-0-----x-0-----x-2-----x-2-----x-0-----x-0----x
A -0---x---0--x---2---x---2---x---3---x---3---x-------x-------x--0---x
E -----x------x-------x-------x-------x-------x--3----x--2----x------x
   (1)    (2)     (3)     (4)    (5)    (6)      (7)     (8)    (1)

You play this throughout the entire song, with the exception of one part 
of the song.

When you hit around 1:26 of the song,
where he begins to sing "I fall to my knees...", you play this:

e-------------------------------------------------------------------
B----------3---------------3---------------3------------------------
G--------0---0-----------0---0-----------2---2-----------2-------2--
D------0-------0-------2-------0-------2-------2-------0-------0----
A----0-----------0---0-----------0---2-----------2---2-------2------
E--0---------------0---------------0---------------0-------0--------

e-------------------------------------------------------------------
B----------3---------------3---------------3------------------------
G--------2---2-----------0---0-----------0---0-----------0-------0--
D------0-------0-------0-------0-------2-------2-------0-------0----
A----2-----------2---3-----------3---3-----------3---0-------0------
E--0---------------0---------------0---------------3-------2--------

then you go straight back go playing the normal beat.
(hint: if you look at how you finger the notes, the finger placements
are exactly the same as the regular beat)

now to go onto guitar 2.

Guitar 2:
(Capo 3 is optional)
After the 1st guitarrist plays his entire beat through once,
or once you hit around 00:07 of the song,
the second guitarrist would play this:
 
(with capo 3)
E---------------------------------------------------
B--1h3--0----1h3--0----1h3--0----0h1h3--------------
G---------------------------------------2-----------
D---------------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------

OR

(without capo 3)
E---------------------------------------------------
B--4h6--3----4h6--3----4h6--3----3h4h6--------------
G---------------------------------------5-----------
D---------------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------

when the song hits about 01:34 guitar 2 plays a short beat,
once he starts around saying "... new from the inside out..."

E--10h11-10h11-10-13--
B---------------------
G---------------------   x2
D---------------------
A---------------------
E---------------------

At about 02:09 the 2nd guitarrist plays this:

E--13--13--13--11--11--11--10--10--10--11--11--11------
B------------------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------
