Halcyon chords by The Paper Kites

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard

Original Key: D MajorD

*NOTE: I play the start of the chorus like this:

A augmentedA   D MajorD   A augmentedA

e|----0-----2-----5----|
BB|----2-----3-----2----|
G+G|----2-----2-----2----|
D MajorD|----2-----0-----2----|
A augmentedA|---------------------|
E MajorE|---------------------|

But I realized that some people don't like unnecessary barre chords, so I
wrote the chords down just as A-D-A. If you are comfortable with barring, I
find the song sounds better with the high A augmentedA note.

Intro/End of Chorus:

D MajorD               A augmentedA   B minorBm

e|----10-----9-----7----------7-----5-----2----|
BB|----7------7-----7----------7-----2-----3----|
G+G|----7------7-----7----------7-----2-----4----|
D MajorD|----0------0-----0----------0-----2-----4----|
A augmentedA|----------------------------------------2----|
E MajorE|----------------------------------------2----|
