Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
A Through the gardens and fields 'neath the tall green grass F#m You were walking 'neath the moon while covering your tracks DA Working your fingers down to the skin and stone
F#mC#DA One hand on the hammer, one foot by the door F#mC#DAE Pushed by the wind, fed by the need for moving on DA Moving on to nowhere
A When division runs deep and down into the well F#m All the coins you dove after lost all their spell DA Covered in moss walking for silver and blood
F#mC#DA Out in the cafe, working in the grove F#mC#DA Guarding the port of the future you sold
EDA Holding on, holding on to no one EDA Holding on, holding on to no one
F#mC#DA One eye in the mirror, the other on the screen F#mC#DA Sewn in the pockets and down into the dream F#mC#DA Caught up in the mortar, bricks and heavy load F#mC#DA Wait in the shadows down the living road
EDA Moving on, moving on to no one EDA Moving on, moving on to no one EDA Holding on, holding on to no one EDA Holding on, holding on to no one
For the E - D - A transition add the sus4 and sus2 embelishments to match the song's melody. Also, it may be easier to play with a capo on the 2nd fret, but it's not necessary.
