 As a preface to this, I would like to say that you should definitely go read
 the existing open D tab for this, if you're at all familiar with the tuning.
 Not the open Dsus2 tabs that exist, which are all for live versions. The one
 open D tab that is filed as a "Chords" tab. Seriously, it's awesome.
 
 Here's a somewhat easy standard tuning version to this song. If you want to
 play in the song's original key (album version) of G#, you'd have to capo it
 at the eighth fret, which may be a little high.
 
 Chords used:

 C --------- X32010
 

 Cmaj7 ----- X32410 (or, if that's too hard, X32000)

 Am -------- X02210
 Am7 ------- X02010
 F --------- 133211
 G7 -------- 320001
 G6 -------- 320000
 

 
 Since it's Tallest Man, you'll probably have to get the rhythm
 
 So, here's how it goes:
 
 (Intro)

 e -----------------|
 B -----------------|
 G --0-0-0--0-0-----|
 D --2-2-2--2-0-----|X2
 A --3-3-3--3-3-----|
 E -----------------|

 C          Cmaj7           Am  Am7 
  I sense a runner in the garden
 F                                  G7 G6 
  Although my judgement's known to fail
 C               Cmaj7          Am  Am7 
  Once built a steamboat in a meadow
 F                             G7 G6 
  'Cause I'd forgotten how to sail
 
 F             G7                   C 
  I know the runner's gone to tell you
 
 (I do this little figure)

 e -----------------|
 B --1-1-1--1-1-----|
 G --2-2-2--4-2-----|
 D --x-x-x--x-x-----|X2

 F                 G7          C  
  There ain't no cowboy in my hair
 F              G7             C   
  So now he's buried by the daisies
 F                                    G7         C  
  So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe
 
 I sense a spy up in the chimney
 From all the evidence I've burned
 I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
 And soon to ashes I'll return
 
 I know the spy is going to tell you
 It's not my flag up in the pole
 So now he's buried by the lilies
 So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe
 
 I sense a leak inside my phone now
 From all the lies I have told
 I know he has your private number
 And soon he'll make that vicious call
 
 I know the leak is going to tell you
 There ain't now puppy in your leash
 So now he'll fertilize the roses
 So I could stay the king you see
 In your eyes, babe
 In your eyes, babe
 
 So now we're dancing through the garden
 And what a garden I have made
 And now that death will grow my jasmine
 I find it soothing I'm afraid
 
 Now there is no need for suspicion
 There ain't no frog kissing your hand
 I won't be lying when I tell you
 That I'm a Gardner I'm a man
 In your eyes babe
 In your eyes babe
 In your eyes babe
