G                 G
  And a fall from you
              A                  Bm
Is a long way down, I've found a better way out
G                 G

Well, it's been a long time since I've seen you smile
         A                      Bm
Gambled away my fright till the morning lights shine

D                   Em
Sunday morning only fog on the limbs
  G                            D
I called it again, what do you know?
    D                      Em
And I filled our days with cards and gin
        G               D
You're alight again, my dear
 
D Em G D
D Em G D
 
[Verse 4]
      D                                    Em
I will lead the way, oh, lead the way when I know
        G                                D
And I'll sleep away, oh, sweep away what I don't
     D                                      Em
Well, seize the way, oh, seize the way, no, I won't
      G                                    D
I will lead the way, oh, lead the day when I know

great tab, i think it sounds good capo'd on the 7th fret, making the chords G is now C A is now D Bm is Em Em is Am D is G sounds good either way, i just like playing it higher

Small suggestion: I think the G in the G G A Bm section should be Gmaj7
