the guitar in this song is played in a bass note then the chord fashion.
 
           G                         C
looking forward looking back
                   Am                           Em

                   Am                  Em

         Dm       B7            Am
full of change along the way
                 G                     C

version 3









Tune guitar down 1 step  Eb,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb
The only tabs/chords I could find were rubbish so I sat down and worked it out 

You could play it with a normal tuning but you would have to play the E in a 
high position and the open chord sounds better (I think).
