Chords

This is a little stripped down but it's how I've been playing it. He throws in a few slides and hammer-ons throughout. I hit the bass note before each chord. Capo II
C             Em          F   G
Well it don't take much imagination

C          Em        G
To see the picture frame

C           Em      F       C
And I don't need my concentration

Am                  D
To know when I'm in pain

Am     Em             F          C
When I lost myself I lost you by extension

Am                               D
I don't know who would stand to gain

C             Em           F        C
These silly dreams aren't worth a mention

C               G                C
But they keep collecting in my brain

C            Em      F         G
Went on the hunt for fame and fortune

C             Em         G
Picked up the trail just fine

C            Em      F         C
Everywhere I go the doors fly open

Am                      D
But I want out once I'm inside

Am     Em                F                    C
When I break my heart I know that yours gets broken

Am                          D
I just wish that kept me in line

C           Em      F        C
But I can't live outside the moment

C             G          C
And it keeps leaving me behind

C              G          C
It just keeps leaving me behind

C             Em       F         G
When I can't sleep my mind's a circle

C            Em      G
I watch the ceiling fan

C           Em       F        C
I close my eyes and feel the wind blow

Am                     D
My bed it turns into a raft

Am                Em              F          C
I drift away this night at Lake Unknown I'm floating

Am                       D
I see it all for what it is

C          Em     F     C
Most anything can be forgiven

C       G                  C
What is left we'll have to live

C            G                  C
With what is left we'll have to live
