Andy will sometimes use the Em7 shape as a hammer-on on the D-string to transition from G into C.

[Verse 1]
C                 G          Em7     Am      Am7      F
Darling open your eyes, the sun came up it's just disguised
F                Em       Am     Am7    F      G   Em7
with a rain coat on he'll keep a fire inside
C                    G                 Em7       Am        AM7    F
without your glasses you're blind, you took them off so you could find
F           Em      Am    Am7     F
a brand new way to see familiarity
 
F                 Em       Am   Am7 F
you've gotta open up your eyes to see
F                 Em       Am   Am7 F   G Em7 C
you've gotta open up your eyes to see, to see
 
[Verse 2]
C                  G           Em7           Am     Am7      F
and on a hill that you climbed near summer's end by autumn's side
F           Em   Am   Am7  F      G   Em7
you gazed into a universal sky
C                  G            Am      Am7           F
and lost in deeper thoughts you found a way to understand
F                Em             Am     Am7          F
past the ticking clock strapped to the back of your hand
F                  Em    Am   Am7 F
you said time will never wait for me
F          Em   Am   Am7 F      G    Em7 C
time will never wait for me, so wait for me
 
[Verse 3]
C                    G      Em7      Am   Am7              F
do you see the white lights the blue sky borrowed from the night
F       Em     Am    Am7       F                G  Em7
retired long ago but still are shining bright
C                    G        Em7   Am    Am7        F
and when you told me tomorrow never comes quite soon enough
F      Em  Am     Am7   F           G  Em7
I remember saying what about today
F           Em   Am Am7 F
yeah we are here today,
F            Em     Am   Am7 F
and tomorrow always seems so far away.
F            Em     Am   Am7 F    C
and tomorrow always seems so far away
