I'm not going to claim this exactly as James Walsh play's it, but it sounds OK when I do.
It's nice easy chords and sounds good with or without a capo ,try it on the 1st or 2nd fret if you want
it's up you. Oh and if you can't finger pick it can still sound nice if you strum.
G Em
G Em
I am the one who lives there in that house upon the hill's side, everybody knows
G Em
You say you'd all live there somewhere in the future, but nobody goes
Am Em C Am Em C
Yes you wish you were up here and I wish I was down there
Em
We go nowhere
G Em
I feel small and isolated, you feel like the walls are caving in around your soul
G Em
My open space is desolated; your busy life's so complicated, We are losing control
Am Em C Am Em C
Yes you wish you were up here and I wish I was down there
G Am
We go... home Somebody hears
Em C
I can't see across this black river in cold light of winter
G Am
Now, I see it so clear
Em C Em
Being surrounded by beauty it plays on my fears, it plays on my fears
G Em
Like the leaves on the evergreen nothing ever change for me, one week to the next
G Em
Everyday a new decision down there on your silent mission, easy to forget
Am Em C Am Em C
That I wish I was down there and you wish you were up here
G Am
We go... home Somebody hears
Em C
I can't see across this black river in cold light of winter
G Am
And now I see it so clear
Em C Em
Being surrounded by beauty it plays on my fears, it plays on my fears.
