The only versions I've seen are that Capo 3 starting with an Em. That's so wrong.
Also, this is my first tab.
Chords used are Am F G C
I use my thumb for that F base note (first fret E on the F chord), because I find it
easier, but, as always,
do what works best for you.
No Capo
Tuning: Standard
Intro
e|----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------1----1--0---------------1-------3-----------------------|
G|--------2----2--0--------0h2------------0----------0------0-----|
D|--------2----2--0--------3---3----------0---0h2----0h2--0-------|
A|---0---------0--0-----------------------2-------3--3------------|
E|----------------------1------------3----3-----------------------|
After this, he repeats Am F G, but just strumming, and picking the base note before each chord.
e|------0-0-0-----0-0-0-----3-3-3--|
B|------1-1-1-----1-1-1-----3-3-3--|
G|------2-2-2-----2-2-2-----0-0-0--|
D|------2-2-2-----3-3-3-----0-0-0--|
A|---0--0-0-0-----3-3-3-----2-2-2--|
E|------0-0-0--1--1-1-1--3--3-3-3--|
And the C chord with the base note is this:
e|---0-------|
B|---1-------|
G|---0-------|
D|---2-------|
A|-3-3-------|
E|---0-------|
For the rest of the song, it sounds like he uses the strum pattern above for every
chord. He only finger picks
on C, and on the G in the second part (waited for rain"; "When words seem out of place")
which are like this.
C G
e|-0------------ e|----3-3-3-3-3---0----------|

Verse:
Am F
I've seen sad dark times
G C
And I have waited for the sun to rise
Am F
I've seen sad dark times
G
And waited for rain
Am F
And all I know
G C
Is whenever I am far from home
Am
There are nights
F G
When words seem out of place
Chorus:
Am F
By di dy dy dy
G C
By di dy dy dy dy dy
Am F
Bi di dy dy dy
G
Bi di dy dy
Verse:
I have walked alone
And the stars have tried to guide me home
I have walked alone lost in the fog
And all I find
Are faded pictures from some distant life
And i wish to God I could see your eyes
Chorus:
By di dy dy dy
By di dy dy dy dy dy
Bi di dy dy dy
Bi di dy dy
Bridge:
F G Am
I ain't got no magic potion
C
All I know is that
F G
We're better off together
C G Am
Than we ever were alone
F G
So if you let me try give me time
C G Am F G
Woman I will find a way to help you ease your troubled mind
By di dy dy dy
Bi di dy dy dy dy dy
Bi di dy dy dy
bi di dy dy
Verse:
If the morning comes
I'll be thankful just to see the sun
But the daylight seems so far away
Chorus:
By di dy dy dy
By di dy dy dy dy dy
By di dy dy dy
By Yi dy dy (x4)
That very last little diddy is:
G Am
