Chords

I play this on piano, and I find it best to just play each chord over and over again very quickly until the next chord kicks in. Try listening to the song to get the best rhythm.
G          D                Am      Em
[tab]     C               G
     Over the houses

               D                               B
     The streets and the trees

     Em           G                        C
     Over the dogs down below

                 Em                        Am
     They'll bark at our shadows

          C                                  D
     As we float by on the breeze

G          D                Am      Em
     Tonight we fly

     C               G
     Over the chimney tops

        D                               B
     Skylights and slates -

     Em           G                        C
     Looking into all your lives

                 Em                 Am
     And wondering why

          C              D
     Happiness is so hard to find

       G              D           Am         Em
     Over the doctor, over the soldier

    C                G           D               B
     Over the farmer, over the poacher

     Em              G             C               Em
     Over the preacher, over the gambler

      Am           C            G              D
     Over the teacher, over the rambler

     Am              Em      C               G
     Over the lawyer, over the dancer

      D               B          Em             G          C                 Em
     Over the voyeur, over the builder and the destroyer,

     Am            C               D
     Over the hills and far away

G          D                Am      Em
     Tonight we fly

     C               G
     Over the mountains

             D                               B
     The beach and the sea

     Em           G                                C
     Over the friends that we've known

                 Em                    Am
     And those that we now know

               C                               D
     And those who we've yet to meet

G          D                Am      Em
     And when we die

             C              
     Oh, will we be

        G                 D
     That disappointed

                  B
     Or sad

     Em           G                                C
     If heaven doesn't exist

                 Em                        Am
     What will we have missed

               C                  D                      G
     This life is the best we've ever had
