xIron and Wine's cover of "Such Great Heights" by Postal Service.
Pretty basic finger picking. Just listen to it a few times to pick it up.

[Intro]
C G F5 C G
C G F5 C G
[Verse]
C G
I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
F5 C
in our eyes are mirror images and when
G
we kiss they're perfectly aligned
C G
And I have to speculate that God himself
F5 C
did make us into corresponding shapes like
G
puzzle pieces from the clay
C G
True it may seem like a stretch, but
F5
its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
C G
head when you're away when I am missing you to death
C G
When you are out there on the road for
F5
several weeks of shows, and when you scan
C G
the radio I hope this song will guide you home
[Chorus]
C G
They will see us waving from such great
F5 C G
heights, "come down now" they'll say
C G
but everything looks perfect from far away,
F5 C G
"come down now", but we'll stay
[Verse]
C G
I tried my best to leave this song on your
F5 C
machine but the persistent beat it sounded
G
thin upon listening
C G
That frankly will not fly. you will hear
F5
the shrillest highs and lowest lows with
C G
the windows down when this is guiding you home
[Chorus]
C G
They will see us waving from such great
F5 C G
heights, "come down now" they'll say
C G
but everything looks perfect from far away,
F5 C G
"come down now", but we'll stay
[Outro]

End on C
