[Verse 1]
 
C                     C                 C                C
I was walking through icy streams that took my breath away
Am                    Am               Am               Am
Moving slowly through westward water, over glacial plains
 
                  F   C
And I walked off you
                    Am
And I walked off an old me
   F                 C               Am
Oh me, oh my, I thought it was a dream
        Am
So it seemed
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F                   Am             Em7
   And now, breathe deep, I'm inhaling
Em7
You and I, there's air in between
F             Am           Em7
   Leave me be, I'm exhaling
Em7
You and I, there's air in between
 
 
[Refrain]
 
F        Am
  Wooh oooh oooh oooh
Em7
  Oooh oooh
You and I, there's air in between
F        Am
  Wooh oooh oooh oooh
Em7
  Oooh oooh
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C               C                   C
Cut my hair so I could rock back and forth
        C
Without thinking of you
  Am                 Am            Am
Learn to talk and say whatever I wanted to
 
                   F   C
And I walked off you
                      Am
And I walked off an old me
   F               C                Am
Oh me, oh my, I thought it was a dream
       Am
So it seemed
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F                   Am             Em7
   And now, breathe deep, I'm inhaling
Em7
You and I, there's air in between
F             Am           Em7
   Leave me be, I'm exhaling
Em7
You and I, there's air in between
 
 
[Refrain]
 
F        Am
  Wooh oooh oooh oooh
Em7
  Oooh oooh
F        Am
  Wooh oooh oooh oooh
Em7
  Oooh oooh
 
F        Am
  Wooh oooh oooh oooh
Em7
  Oooh oooh
Em7
You and I, there's air in between
F        Am
  Wooh oooh oooh oooh
Em7
  Oooh oooh
Em7
You and I, there's air in between

All Em chords should be G chords. Also the F chord doesn't happen until the 5th line. Watch this for the correct chords. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-F9dAv5Ut0

My bad, these chords follow the original version...I gotcha now. Nice job. Very different from the acoustic version. As far as putting your own "twist" on the songs....I would make note of that at the top of the tab...that it's "your version" and not exactly accurate for those of us interested in learning the actual way to play the song.

thank you! i love this song and this makes for great playing!
