I have only outlined the basic skeleton here... there is obviously lots of 
beautiful finger-picking that I've left out... but pretty easy to figure out if 
you noodle around for a bit.
Capo: 6th fret
[Intro]
C        G      G      Am    C    Am   Em  G
[Verse 1]
(G)         C  
Cicadas and gulls
They scrape on the Ghull
The land and the Csea
They're distant from Gme
[Chorus 1]
I'm in the sAmky, sky, Csky
I'm in the AmskyEm  G  
[Verse 2]
(G)               C  
Thoughts are like pearls
And flags are unfGurled
When we're in the Cdark
I'll ride you like the Gark
[Chorus 2]
Because you're Ammine, mine, Cmine
Because you're AmmineEm  G  
[Solo]
C        G      G      Am    C    Am   Em  G
[Verse 3]
(G)  C   G   C  G  
Maps can be poems
When you're on your own 
And distance is braille
And all that entails
[Chorus 3]
I'm in the sAmky, sky, sCky
I'm in the AmskyC  
I'm in the AmskyEm  G  
[Verse 4]
(G)  C   G   C  G  
Empty as a page
As high as a stage
As full as a room
When we're in the spoon
