Text File

A lot of this tab is copied from other tabs that have already been posted, but I 
some of the chords throughout the song and tabbed them more specifically/accurately. Hope this 
an improvement :)

I divided it into sections, the chord progressions written out are repeated for the rest 
the lyrics that are posted within the section, then the song moves right along to the 
one. Not too complicated, I promise.

Let me know what you think! Thanks -Court


SECTION 1

 Em     C  B     D       C*
-7------3--2-----10------8---|
-8------5--4-----10------8---|
-9------5--4-----11------9---|
-9------5--4-----12------10--|
-7------3--2-----12------10--|
-7------3--2-----10------8---|

 Em                 C        B
On this earth not alone we stand
 D                     C*
Outstretched arm and upturned hand
 Em                      C       B
Never knowing when the shakes steady
 D                      C*
And 'till now we have seldom seen

And I will go if you go with me
Understand I will wait for thee
I'll try to catch up if you move quickly
If the rain does blow


SECTION 2

 G*     G6     C*    G6
-7------7------8-----7---|
-8------7------8-----7---|
-7------7------9-----7---|
-9------7------10----7---|
-10-----9------10----9---|
-7------10-----8-----10--|

    G*
And oh sir
             G6
If you ever lose your way
         C*
You can call upon this family
         G6
You can call upon this day

And old man
If you ever lose your way
You can call up on this family
You can call upon this day


SECTION 3

 Em     C**     G       D6
-7------8-------3-------8--|
-8------10------3-------8--|
-9------9-------4-------8--|
-9------10------5-------8--|
-7------10------5-------9--|
--------8-------3-------10-|

                   Em                     C**
'Cause you're my present, my future, my lesson, my teacher,
 G                  D6
Oh... My world is still

You're my God you're my guide, in my life I confide
To ever shelter your will
And my words are forever my blanket, my shiver
Whatever you give, I'll never lack
You're my chorus, my refrain, the verse of my first pain,
Let the voices come barreling back


SECTION 4 (this part is mostly finger-picking with some strumming)

 Em     C      G       D6
-7------3------3-------8--|
-8------5------3-------8--|
-9------5------4-------8--|
-9------5------5-------8--|
-7------3------5-------9--|
-7------3------3-------10-|

                       Em                C
'Cause I can stand to stay right where I am
          G              D6
Let the water fill this hand

Bring it to your mouth and pass beyond your lips
No gale can down this ship
And I'll stand on your shoulders to watch us grow older
I can see us far along the road
As the trail grows deeper, you're my giver, my keeper,
Laughter for years untold
'Cause I can stand to stay right where I am
Let the water fill this hand
Bring it to your mouth and pass beyond your lips
No gale can down this ship


SECTION 5 (standard OPEN CHORDS from here on out)

                 Em            C
And wherever you go, there you are
         G              D
And if I go I won't go far
And wherever you go, there you are
And if I go, I won't go far
Wherever you go, there you are
And if I go I won't go far


HARMONICA SOLO (strum the open chords, but the last 4 bars are a repeat of the 
in section 4)


ENDING (this is the exact same as section 2)

And oh sir, if you ever lose your way
You can call upon this family, you can call upon this day
And oh sir, if you ever lose your way
You can call upon this family, you can call upon this day
