1st VERSE:
"On the f[Em]irst part of the journey[E7sus4]
I was l[Em]ooking at all the life[E7sus4]
There were p[Em]lants and birds and rocks an[E7sus4]d things
There was sa[Em]nd and hills and rings[E7sus4]
The fi[Em]rst thing I met was a f[E7sus4]ly with a buzz
And the sk[Em]y with no clouds[E7sus4]
The heat w[Em]as hot and the ground w[E7sus4]as dry
But the a[Em]ir was full of sound[E7sus4]".
(It's the same for the rest of the song; in order to play this song
just like it sounds, I recommend you to play the "big strings"(E,A and D)
alone before every Em Chord part;I mean: play 022---, before playing the whole
chord:022000)
