REST OF VERSES
There are stars in the southern sky,
Southward as you go.
There is moonlight and moss in the trees,
Down the seven bridges road.
There are stars in the southern sky.
And if ever you decide you should go.
There is a taste of thyme sweet and honey.
Down the seven bridges road.

version 2
The tabs that I've seen for this are way oversimplified. First of all, the song is in
D tuning and the low D string is hit during the first bass run. Also, if you listen
you can hear the high e string the entire time except during the bass runs. The song is
of 3 chords, D, C, and B/G. The chords are played as listed below.

Don't try to pick hard at the e and B strings, but strike them with a very light strum.
song requires some touch.
There is a bass run during the G of the bridge and several during chorus. The open D
is the start of the next D chord.

Chorus bass goes something like this before going back into the C chord.
