[Intro]
 Cm   Ab   Dm   Eb   Cm(x2)
[Verse 1]
From the Cmcape to the Abhook
With a Dmcarpet of Ebleaves undeCmrfoot
Through the Cmlakes and the Abpines
With mDmy nose and my Ebears and Cmeyes
[Chorus 1]
CmAnd with the warm sun on my Abshoulders
FmAnd with the Cmriver rushing Abdown
CmI'm walking Bbon a path to FmhighAber gCmround
FmOut of the tAbrees and through the cCmlouds
[Verse 2]
Down the fCmence in the Abdusk
Through the scDmree at the Ebfoot of the bCmluff
And i drCmank from the bAbrook
And i sFmlept in the lEbee of the wGood
[Chorus 2]
CmAnd in the house where i last Abheld you
FmOur bed was Cmcast adrift all Abnight
CmAnd you were Bbtaking me to FmhighAber gCmround
GmOut of my skin above the cFmlouds
[Bridge]
Ab Eb Ab Cm Ab Fm Cm G
[Chorus 3]
CmAnd in the canvas of a Abclear night
FmA billion Cmpins of flickering Ablight
CmAnd i dreamed of Bbrising up beCmside yGmou
AbAmong the gGmalaxies and sFmtars
AbAnd you were Gmtaking me to FmhighAber gCmround
DmOut of my sGmkin above the cCmlouds
