I decided I wanted to do a tab so I transposed the piano part in the beginning so we can
play it.  It's a truly great song just like most of the other songs by The Fray.

very very close, except at the end need to add a "c" note. check it out: the intro (and verses which i believe are the exact same) the piano version goes from the "a" note (9th fret, b string) which you have shown, then followed by the 9, 11, 9 pattern you posted but before the last 9, 9, 11 pattern you need to rise back up to the "c" note again on the 12th fret, b string. listen first, then try it.

This is in the wrong key it is 1/2 step too low

uhh...move everything up one fret....the whole thing is a step too flat...I hate to poopoo on the tab, but I'm just tryin' to help.
