Bridge: 
 
As mentioned previously, I would play the F, as an Fmaj7 with your thumb playing  
the first fret of the low E, this seems to flow slightly better.  
 
I would like to note here that this tab for bridge, will require some messing about  
to get it to sound right, listen to the song to fully get it - I've tried to notate it  
here, but it's quite hard to understand unless you watch/listen to what he's doing.  
 
In the cover Sean on the piano plays the full Bm chord, Justin simply plays a B  
on the A string (Second fret) 
 
Am Am7/B C F  
 
 
Strum this F a few more times then repeat.
