Alas We Aspire by Amy Stroup Tab
(The Live Version doesn’t use a capo)
(However the recorded versions for television series use capo 1)
(The first 4 bars use Pattern 1)
(The rest of the song except the Chorus uses Pattern 2, it’s almost the same)

(Verse)
D/A D1/A
Rain cleared the wood
D2/A D3/A
Shallow light there you stood
D/A D1/A
Rain cleared the wood
D2/A D3/A
Turned my eyes there you stood
(Please also note, that Amy drops the low ‘e’ string down
to a ‘d’, and plays more open type chord structures in
the Choruses … good luck on this … I use pretty
standard chord shapes)
