Chords

This is a tab from the acoustic guitar version on the album "Going Somewhere" Chords uses: G - 320033 C - XX0232 Gsus4 - XXXX0233 C/E - X20033

Fadd9 - X32033
Em7 - 022033

Alot of it is palm muted on the recording, you can hear where if you listen but it doesn't really matter much if you do it too or not. Intro: C - C - C/E - Fadd9 He plays the intro like this on the recording, though just strumming the basic chords is fine. I won't put the strumming pattern as you can hear it and figure out the timing yourself.

C                      C
Did someone call my name

C/E              Fadd9                C
Like a distant drum thats beating

          C            C/E            Fadd9
or is it just another dream of long ago

C                        C
I dance again, I am spinning

C/E                  Fadd9      C
In the light, I am living

                     C    C/E                 Fadd9      
And I can feel the power, rushing through my veins

Bridge:

C                         Fadd9     
Once upon a time, I could do no wrong

C                              Fadd9    
Though the candle flickers, the flame is never gone

(walk on the A string as in the intro going onto the D, and alternate the D with Dsus4) Chorus

C                 C 
To my brilliant feat

C/E                C
May they all pay heed

C             Fadd9      Gsus4     C        
I hear the crowd roar, oh so loudly

Second verse and bridge, then the second chorus is extended:

C                 C 
To my brilliant feat

C/E                C
May they all pay heed

C             Fadd9      Gsus4     C        
I hear the crowd roar, oh so loudly

C                 C 
To my brilliant feat

C/E                C
I make grown men weep

Am7             Fadd9      Gsus4     C        
And still my eyes grow, oh so cloudy

After the last chorus play Em7 - Cadd9 - D to finish. Comments welcome.
