The rest of the tabs/chords I've found don't sound that great but this one is pretty spot on. The intro progression is pretty quiet on my recording so it's hard to make out but it works well. This is the chord progression using bar chord positions relative to CAPO 5, not open. The main pattern pretty much repeats until the last stanza during which the progression goes back to the C#/G#/A#m/F#. Fairly easy to play if you can play bar chords. Capo 5 and play the positions with A and E shape bar chords. The spacing of the chords above the words might be slightly off so listen to the song. A#m F# On this earth not alone we stand G# Outstretched arm and upturned hand A#m F# Never knowing when the shakes steady G# And 'till now we have seldom seen A#m F# And I will go if you go with me G# Understand I will wait for thee A#m F# I'll try to catch up if you move quickly G# If the wind does blow [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/state-radio/383427.html ] C# And oh sir G# If you ever lose your way A#m You can call upon this family F# You can call upon this day C# And oh ma'am G# If you ever lose your way A#m You can call up on this family F# You can call upon this day A#m 'Cause you're my present my future F# My lesson my teacher C# G# Oh, My world is still A#m You're my guard you're my guide F# In my life I confide C# G# To ever shelter your will A#m F# And my words are forever my blanket my shiver C# G# Whatever you give I'll never lack You're my chorus my refrain The verse of my first pain Let the voices come barrelling back 'Cause I can stand to stay right where I am Let the water fill this hand Bring it to your mouth Let it 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 your 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 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 And oh sir If you ever lose your way You can call upon this family You can call upon this day |
