Fun to play with harmonica too, I think he uses an A or E in this one. Dm (000231) Am (201220) C (x32010) Cadd4 (x33010) F (330210) D* (x54030) G (550430) Am* (770050) [Harmonica Intro] Dm Am C F F D* F C Cadd4 C Cadd4 C [Verse]
Dm              Am          Dm        Am
And I have bound myself, to your bearings

   C                 F                             C
My love is a nesting bird, lodged in the breast of her

Dm           Am         C             D*
Lace up your boots tied to the jagged line

F                       D*    F                 C               
Of a million different lives, under the leeward side
[Chorus]
                  Dm     Am  C                    D*
Because I want to be someone worthy of your conversation

    F                       D*
The madness in the moonless night

   F                      C
So shake off your leeward side
[Harmonica break] Dm Am C F F D* F C Cadd4 C Cadd4 C [Verse]
Dm       Am           Dm             Am
And everything that I did, I did not do

       C               F                         C
In the miniature of my life as a lineage back to you

Dm        Am           C                   D*
Some will sit on their hands despite their feet

F                  D*       F                 C
One day I know Ill see, you dancing away from me
[Chorus]
                  Dm     Am  C                    F
Because I want to be someone worthy of your conversation

                            D*
The madness in the moonless night

   F                      C
So shake off your leeward side

               Dm     Am         C                 D*
We all want to be someone in the miniature of your life

    F                      D*      F                   C  Cadd4   (harmonica tidbit)
The madness in the wounded sky, so shake of your salvation
[Bridge]
G              
You want more, you will want more

              Am*       G     F
You will want more than I can offer you away from my shore

G                                         Am*  G    F
To my skin, to my bones, down to my very cold core
All you need is one I will not follow [Verse]
Dm                 Am       C               F
One day you will unfold and fall into the untold

                    D* F                 C
One day you long to be dancing away from me

    Dm               Am    C                      D*
But under the hollow skies past where the sails divide

F               D*  F                   C
Until the day I die Ill be your leeward side
[Harmonica outro] Dm Am C D* F D* F C
