I've already had about 4-6 requests for this song, and finally managed to get it done! The fast parts were really difficult to pick out - I had to slow down the song's tempo (with audio software) to catch them. Play with a generous helping of wah! Also, see below for the United Live version.
I made some mistakes in the video though. For the first part, the notes weren't bent enough, and I alternate picked the last note in the 2nd half (without the music) too many times, its meant to be played once only.

Introduction
Here's the introduciton to What the World Will Never Take - what I like is the way the harmonics are added at the end in the God He Reigns version. Here is the clip + tabs:

great tabs,
but in the united live version video, your a little off beat
Cool tabs. But for the introduction,Hillsong version, it'll be more groovy and more strokes and palm muting. And the Harmonics, its actually (7) (9) (11) on the D string only. And for the ending of the Hillsong version Instrumental, I found out that Nigel plays chords instead of notes. You got all your notes right, so you can just keep playing down strokes on chords instead of the notes.
What kind of audio software do you use to slow down songs?
Software like that could be very usefull I think!
Greetz Sander
btw. Nice site and good tabs;)
I used audacity.. its actually quite a tedious way to go about slowing down songs... I'm sure there are better programs out there though.
What chords are played in the hillsong version of the "what the world will never take" during the solo?
F#m F A B (x2)
B B-A
Thanks so much, you're a genius! If you ever come to South Africa, let me know! :)
hey kenny what xtl patch did you use for the God He Reigns instrumental?
Awesome tab, but you can also play those harmonics on the 9th fret, and its a little easier.
I looked on Itunes and I cant find the God He Reigns version... where can I find it?
hi...can some1 tab the pre-chorus part out?plss.....can seem to catch it......hope some1 replies
what does the letter mean in the tabs?
Dude, the solo's awesome, I just have one question, you know what I can do so I can do it as fast? Do you pick all the frets you ...fret? or do you just slam 'em so they make the sound and only pick the ones where your fingers are after a while...
If you could reply it'd be awesome dude, thanks!!!
LATERS!!!
hi le beau.. speed takes effort and time to build up, you have to keep working at it for days, weeks, months even..
the solo uses lots of pull-offs, its in the tab.. hope this helps :)
One more q dude, how do you manage the wah? Do you leave it half open, step on it real slow? Thanks dude, LATERS!!!
Thanks for this tab, used it to learn this song for my band :)
