Capo 3

verse 1

 C majorC G+G       C majorC      G+G
I saw red and yellow flowers outside over the moors
  E minorEm        D MajorD           G+G
And brightest sunrise ever to've touched my eyes.
  C majorC
And through it all,
 E minorEm         D MajorD               C majorC
I stood and stumbled, waded through my thoughts and heart
        G+G
Yeah through it all,
 E minorEm         D MajorD         C majorC    E minorEm
I fooled and fumbled, lost to the poet's frown.
            D MajorD    G+G       C majorC
I fought the wolves of patience just to let it lie down.

G+G    D MajorD         C majorC
See these waters they'll pull you up,
G+G      D MajorD       C majorC
Oh if you're bolder than the darkness.
 G+G             D MajorD       C majorC
My my, let these songs be an instrument to cut,
  G+G        D MajorD         C majorC    D MajorD
Oh spaces 'tween the happiness and the hardness.
C majorC       G+G
Out the door,
E minorEm            D MajorD
The touch of morning, the burning of the frost
C majorC
Out the door
E minorEm             D MajorD
Strong hands to hold; good friends that I never lost.

verse 2

C majorC
And what we found
   E minorEm       D MajorD
Down these coves of limestone and cockle shells,
C majorC
What we found
   E minorEm        D MajorD            C majorC
Down these roads that wander as lost as the heart,
   E minorEm             D MajorD            C majorC
Is a chance to breathe again, a chance for a fresh start
  E minorEm               D MajorD             C majorC
My, my, a chance to breathe again, a chance for a fresh start
  E minorEm                D MajorD             C majorC
Oh my, a chance to breathe again, a chance for a fresh start.

  G+G      D MajorD         C majorC
Oh, no, see these waters they'll pull you up,
  G+G      D MajorD       C majorC
Oh, no, if you're bolder than the darkness.
  G+G            D MajorD      C majorC
My my let these songs be an instrument to cut here darling,
  G+G         D MajorD         C majorC
Oh, spaces between the happiness and the hardness,
     G+G         D MajorD         C majorC
Oh my my, spaces between the happiness and the hardness
     G+G         D MajorD         C majorC
Oh my my, spaces between the happiness and the hardness
     G+G         D MajorD         C majorC    D MajorD
Oh my my, spaces between the happiness and the hardness
