      Tuning: Half-Step Down

Very easy and beautiful song. The whole song is these three chords, strummed:

C:     332xxx
F:     133xxx
G:     320xxx

Each chorus in the chord is played without the E string.

C
Day walks out and there's no sound
      F
There's a candle burning by me now
C                                    G
Light enough for to see the things beyond me
C
Door is wide as a rise on me
        F
So the night comes in and starts to breath
C                    G               C
The only name that I really know

C
Tell me did he think of me
     F            
At a drop of rain, or when you see
C                                    G
When it rakes as it moves across the water
C  
Judgement comes when I'm all alone
       F 
Like a spyglass on the furthest coast
C                     G                    C
Favored now that it's left behind

F        G       C  C         G       C  
When you talk to me you could swallow me

C
Nighttime brings me a place I fear
        F
Where I hear your words and feel you near
C                             G
Fingers only to find a frozen memory
C    
Sometimes clothes chosen long ago
      F
A direction down a gravel road
C                        G        C
Makes you wish you could take him back

C        F        C        G       C
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

C    
Days walk on and when there's no sound
     F 
I go straight to you and find you down
C                                  G 
Kneeling next to the water where I left you
C 
Knee-deep now in the creek I made
         F
From the landscape lost I want to save 
C                 G                C
Save it now or be punished more

F        G       C  C         G       C 
When you talk to me you could swallow me

C 
Nighttime brings me a place I fear
        F
Where I hear your words and feel you near
C                              G
Fingers never to find a warmer memory
C
Sometimes friends we knew long ago
    F
Or affections we set free to go
C                        G             C
Find you right where you ran to hide
