Among The Oak And Ash - High, Low And Wide
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Verse 1]
C
I am but a shadow
F
Cast upon the road
C
And we are all but strangers
F G
Bearing a heavy load
[Verse 2]
C
And all these worldly things
F
We won't need anymore
C
You'll only take your place
F G
Standing on that shore
[Chorus]
Dm7 F
High, low and wide
C G
That's just how big this ocean gets
Dm7 F
Stronger than the tide
C G
That's just how hard this journey is
F C
You've got to cross it alone
F C
You've got to cross it alone
F G
You've got to cross it alone
N.C. C
To get back home
[Verse 3]
The efforts of the sun
F
Are wasted on the rain
C
There's nothing in this world
F G
To take away your pain
[Chorus]
Dm7 F
High, low and wide
C G
That's just how big this ocean gets
Dm7 F
Stronger than the tide
C G
That's just how hard this journey is
F C
You've got to cross it alone
F C
You've got to cross it alone
F G
You've got to cross it alone
N.C. Dm7
To get back home
{Instrumental]
Dm7 F C G Dm7 F C G
[Bridge]
F C
If you cross it alone
F C
Free then you shall be
Am D
From the troubles that you know
F N.C. C
Oh, we're just sailing to get back home
[Outro] (repeat 14x and fade to end)
F C
You've got to cross it alone
