Throughout much of the song he adds and removes the high C on the first fret like so:
e|--0--0--0--0--0---/--0--0--0--0--0-----------------------------------| B|--1--0--1--0--1---/--1--0--1--0--1-----------------------------------| G|--0--0--0--0--0---/--2--2--2--2--2-----------------------------------| D|--2--2--2--2--2---/--3--3--3--3--3-----------------------------------| A|--3--3--3--3--3---/--3--3--3--3--3-----------------------------------| E|--3--3--3--3--3---/--x--x--x--x--x-----------------------------------|
(I would just think of it as C and F, with the B-C-B-C thing as a decoration)
[Intro]
C Fmaj7
[Verse 1]
C (Cmaj7 C Cmaj7 C) Fmaj7 Laid our blessings on the ground C The softening of sound (Cmaj7 C Cmaj7 C) Fmaj7 Draws us closed again C (Cmaj7 C Cmaj7 C) Fmaj7 Stay, stay and watch the coals C till they cease to glow (Cmaj7 C Cmaj7 C) Fmaj7 like empty promises
[Chorus]
C G F C G Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? C G F C G Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? C Baby?
C Fmaj7
[Verse 2]
C Fmaj7 There's nothing I can say C Nothing I can do Fmaj7 To bring you back again C Fmaj7 This of life I know is true C It's all a falling through Fmaj7 and so I reach for you
[Chorus]
C G F C G Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? C G F C G Why, Why did you go, why did you go away?
[Bridge]
Am Em Don't you care Am Em That it may seem unfair? F C G You steal things you ought to borrow Am Em Don't you find Am Em That it may seem unkind? F C G I'd rather breathe than drown in sorrow
[Final Chorus]
C G F C G Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? C G F C G Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? C Baby?
