 #Allright, people were wondering about this song, and it is rather easy.
 #
 #* Both Guitar 1 and 2 are accoustic.
 #* The ending chord on both guitars is an open E (as in the 1st Interlude for
 # guitar 2 shown below)

 #Gone away and found the pearl
 #But the price she paid

 #
 #Gone
 #When you wake in the morning
 #Gone
 #When you find that there's no one sleeping
 #Gone
 #Pretty Penny was her name
 #She was loved and we all will miss her

 #How far will you go, I say
 #Just to bait a mouse?
 #Shorter lived and longer gone
 #Can you figure out?
