It opens with two acoustic guitars which I've tabbed for one:
[C] [Em]
E|------0-------3-------------|------0-------0---------------------| B|------1-------1-------------|------0-------0---------------------| G|--0---0---0---0------0--0---|------0-------0---------------------| D|--2-------2---2------2--2---|--2---2---2---2---------------------| A|--3-------3----------3--3---|--2-------2---2---------------------| E|----------------------------|--0-------0-------------------------|

Then the acoustic guitars are joined
a little reverb that goes:
[C] [Em]

And another guitar comes in with the
electric guitar with these fills:

During the chorus, the bottom E note of the above
is doubled by an overdriven guitar, which might actually be the bass.

Verse 1:
My friend and me
lookin through her red box of memories
Faded I'm sure
but love seems to stick in her things you know
Chorus:
Yes there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord, my love
(* Fill 1)
Verse 2:
Why can't you see (* Fill 2)
that nature has it's way of warning me
Eyes open wide
lookin at the heavens with a tear in my eye
Chours
G (w/ Fill 4) F G F
Sinking faster than a boat without a hull, my lord
G (w/ Fill 5)
Dreamin bout the day when I can see you there (by)my side
By my side.
(Solo)
Here we go again and my head is gone, my lord
I stop to say hello cause I think you should know
That's it!
