Capo: 2
Tuning: D A D G A D
This is a simplified version using the tuning and chords from the offical
Dusk and Summer album book by Hal Leonard.
DADGAD tuning, Capo 2nd fret. 4/4 timing, 72bpm.
Sometimes the high e string (D in this case) is left open,
other times it is fretted on the same fret as the low E (or D). For simplicity, I did not use both versions.

BRIDGE LYRICS:
She said, “No one is alone the way you are alone.”
And you held her looser than you would’ve if you ever could’ve known
Some things tie your life together
With slender threads of things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last
