NOTES:
There's quite a lot going on in this song, which is why it's so 
interesting. Listen to it carefully to get the right tempo.

The chords in the verses are strummed off the beat, whereas the
chorus is taken on the beat. This is a nice switch and means that
the chorus just drives through the song. Then there's that 
beautifully delicate bridge before the song winds itself up 
again and you're off and running... Enjoy!

F#                G           F#                    G
   I could take a walk again,    up a mountain to a stream
F#                 G          F#                      G
   Standing on the open rock,    looking out over the sea

   Funny when we move ahead,    never worry what we leave behind
F#                G               F#                  G
   I could always find some peace    in the back of beyond


VERSE:
Kind voice from yesterday
Give love, fill up every space
But now I laugh at simple truth
Sneer and frown like we all do

[Instrumental over verse chords]


CHORUS:
I could take a walk again, up a mountain to a stream
Standing on the open rock, looking out over the sea.
Funny when we move ahead, never worry what we leave behind
Remember what a friend of mine said, you gotta be kind.
