[Intro]
Em7 Em6/9 Em Em(M9)
(mostly plucking just pluck the strings in the chord and you'll be able to figure it out)
[Verse 1]
Em7 G7
I’m writing you to
Cadd9 B7 Em7
Catch you up on places I’ve been
Em7 G7
You held this letter
Cadd9 B7 Em7
Probably got excited, but there’s nothing else inside it
[Chorus 1]
C G D C F
Didn’t have a camera by my side this time
C G D C F
Hoping I would see the world through both my eyes
C G D C F
Maybe I will tell you all about it when I’m
Em D
In the mood to lose my way with words
[Instrumental]
Em7 Em6/9 Em Em(M9)
[Verse 2]
Em7 G7 Cadd9 B7 Em7
Today skies are painted colors of a cowboy’s cliche’
Em7 G Cadd9 B7
And strange how clouds that look like mountains in the sky
Em7
Are next to mountains anyway
[Chorus 1]
C G D C F
Didn’t have a camera by my side this time
C G D C F
Hoping I would see the world through both my eyes
C G D C F
Maybe I will tell you all about it when I’m
Em F D7
In the mood to lose my way but let me say
[Bridge]
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
It brought me back to life
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
You’ll be with me next time I go outside
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
No more 3x5’s
[Instrumental]
Em7 Em6/9 Em Em(M9)
Em7 D/F# G D/B Am7 B7
I guess you had to be there
Em7 D/F# G D/B Am7 B7
I guess you had to be with me
[Chorus 2]
C G D C F
Today I finally overcame
C G D C F
Tryin’ to fit the world inside a picture frame
C G D C F Em
Maybe I will tell you all about it when I’m in the mood to
F D7
Lose my way but let me say
[Bridge]
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
It brought me back to life
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
You’ll be with me next time I go outside
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
No more 3x5’s
G G13 Am7 Cm6(M7)
Just no more 3x5’s

Surely it's an F instead of an F# in the chorus?
+17

this tabs intro is wrong, if u listen carefully u can hear the guitar pt is going up the whole time
1st 2nd 3rd (and the 4th chord resolves the 3rd)
|0--0--0-0|
|3--5--8-7|

|0--0--0-0|
the gut who did the power tab is rt, i knew this one and the others were off. its a good cover, but the wrong copy of the songs right chords
+7

The "F" at the end of the first three lines should be an FM9, played with the following phrasing:
103010
There're lots of missing chords. This suffices for a simplified version, but the original is beautiful for its eloquent twists of chord voicings and progression.
