Caught this show on BBC2 the other day and was reminded how much I liked
the theme song as a kid. Had a go at figuring out the chords and what i
came up with was different to the other tab on here so i though I'd post
it. Wierdly I think the chords on the other tab are closer to the original
than mine, eg. the lead in to teh chorus is definately D ,C rather than
Am7sus4 Cadd9, but for acoustic strum-along covers these chords just seem
to work better. Keeping the 3rd fret on teh top 2 strings held down on all
the chords seems to work really well.
Chords:
G: (320033)
Em7: (022033)
Cadd9: (x32033)
Am7sus4 (x02233)
D: (xx0232)
Capo 2nd fret.
Intro:

Verse 2:
You can walk a hundred thousand miles and never find a home,
You always knew someday you'd have to strike out on your own,
You look up at the clouds and you can see which way the wind is blowing
