This version of Swim To You is based on a live version of a livingroomconcert,
which you can find on YouTube.
The tuning is standard.
For the G, I personally prefer to do some hammer-ons on the b-string.

      Drifting away from the shore,

Into the open sea

I'll sleep on the ocean tonight
                     C
With the moon at my feet
Fmaj7        C            G
Carving your name with my head
               C    Fmaj7 C   G
In a black oak tree eeee eeee eeee
C      Fmaj7  C      G
oooooh oooooh oooooh oooooh
 
 
 
C      Fmaj7  C      G
 
 
 
C     Fmaj7        C          G
    a king without kingdom or throne
           C
nowhere to go
Fmaj7      C          G
conquering islands of hope 
      C
all alone
          Fmaj7 C       G
eyes wide open shutters closed
                    C      Fmaj7 C   G

    Bruized by the size of the rain
             C
coming back again
Fmaj7     C        G
Long gone memories fade
             C
old pictures remain
      Fmaj7     C     G
speak slowly to me my dear
                 C     Fmaj7 C    G

This is amazing. The only changes that I would make is the strumming pattern. It's right until you get to the parts at the very end of each verse where he holds out the words (all I see is your ghost. Swim to you, etc) . It should go ddu ddu ddu dduudu udududu. You have to really be listening for it. Other than that this tab is amazing! Thank you so much this is one of my favorite songs to play.
