I chose to use barre chords instead of regular chords because it gave off a fuller sound:
e|-5-3-1-2--2--3-|
BB|-5-3-1-2--3--4-|
G+G|-5-4-2-3--4--5-|
D MajorD|-7-5-3-4--4--5-|
A augmentedA|-7-5-3-4--2--3-|
E MajorE|-5-3-1-2--x--x-|
 C minorCm

Intro:
G+G

(I play this as the verses just to keep it interesting)
e|-----------------------------------------------------|
BB|-----------------------------------------------------|
G+G|----------5-----------5-------------4b4----------4b4-|
D MajorD|----------7-----------7-------------5------------5---|
A augmentedA|-----7---(7)-----7---(7)-------5---(5)------5---(5)--|
E MajorE|-5-5---5-(5)-5-5---5-(5)-5/3-3---3-(3)--3-3---3-(3)--|

    G+G
If I trust in the wind she will pave me a different road
    G+G
I will try and start over but I think I must choose someone else
    G+G
I am pulled from the pages where the letters lack the pigment of trust

     G+G
must be on my way, I’ve got to get home
     G+G
won’t be back someday, so let it unfold

(G+G)
    G+G
I’ve abandoned the outcome in search of the rest I deserve
    G+G
you can do what you will with my body but I won’t ring the bell
    G+G
I’ve omitted the chapters that bow and admit defeat
     G+G
must be on my way, I’ve got to get home
     G+G
won’t be back someday, so let it unfold

FF
I a mountain
        F#F#
of cavernous people
G+G
searching for a lighthouse in the fog
(Repeat twice)

(G+G)
     G+G
of the flowers that grew from the cracks in the ground you paved
    G+G
didn’t you think he would warn me through the thorns of my waking dreams
      G+G
when the riddles connected the dots of this constellation

     G+G
must be on my way, I’ve got to get home
     G+G
won’t be back someday, so let it unfold

FF
I a mountain
        F#F#
of cavernous people
G+G
searching for a lighthouse in the fog
(Repeat twice)

C minorCm
I found a reason to leave you with this load
C minorCm
all I can do is forgive your broken heart
C minorCm
trapped in this tower made of amber for too long
C minorCm
all I can do is forgive your broken heart

FF
I a mountain
        F#F#
of cavernous people
G+G
searching for a lighthouse in the fog
(Repeat twice)
