This version contains tabs for the first part of the song, the other version published is very good with
words/chord placement, so refer back to it for that stuff!
Anytime a C chord appears, this pattern is played: (intro + "in a book I found", "make her ten miles tall")
e|------------------------------------------------------------0--------------| B|---------1-----------------1---------------1-------------1----1------------| G|------------0-----------0----0----------------0----------------------------| D|-----2------------3h2------------------2------------3h2--------------------| A|--3---------------------------------3--------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C into Am and G for "Joan in the garden", "as she left her body"
e|-------------------------------| B|-----------1-------------------| G|--------2----------------------| D|-----2-------------------------| A|--0----------------------------| E|-----------------3-(let ring)--|
C into Am and F for "I will lay her heart in mine", "did she lay her dowry by", into "for a time"
e|------------------------------------1--------------------------------------| B|-----------1---------------------1-----1-----------------------------------| G|--------2-----2---------------2-----------2--------------------------------| D|-----2-----------2---------3-----------------3-----------------------------| A|--0-----------------3------------------------------------------------------| E|------------------------1-----------------------1--------------------------|
"for a time..."

There is a little walk down between the C and F between the pre-chorus and chorus, I just do 3-2 on the
A string.
The same pattern is used for the F, Am, and G in the Chorus "and if you listen closely..."
