This is all my own work.


CAPO Fret 5 ^Ö All chords are relative to the capo.

This is a very simple song which sounds very beautiful, just like most
Tom songs.

It only has three chords with some slight variations thrown in for
colour. They are:

  D MajorD    G6sus2   E minorEm


----2---------0--------0-----------------------------------------------3--------
-3--------0-----------------------------------------------2---------2--------0--
---------------------------------------------0---------0--------2---------------
------------------------------------------x--------2----------------------------
-----------------------------3--------0-----------------------------------------

The verses are played D MajorD G6sus2 D MajorD G6sus2 and so on. Tom uses a picking
pattern along these lines:


-------------2-----2-----------0------0---------------------------------------3-
--3-----3-------3---3------3-----------------------------------2-------2-----2--
--2-------2------2------------------------------0-------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------3--------------------------------------

The prechorus section uses E minorEm D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD G6sus2 . Fiddle around with
variations of arpeggios and you will get something close.


Notes: Sometimes you might want to play with the D MajorD and switch to a Dsus2Dsus2
and go to a straight Gsus2Gsus2 but it sounds fine without it. You could even
strum these chords if you wanted to. Hope this helps someone out there.
