The Old Peace by Steven Wilson
The Old Peace
The whole song is fingerpicked. I recommend you doing it seeing that it is not a difficult pattern. But you
can also use a pick!

Verse 1 (Wilson):
You could be wise
Spending a lifetime
Under your tree, watching apples fall from above
You could be lost, aimless
In your hometown
Nothing in that moment matters more
Than the book in your hand
Chorus (Wilson):
And I see impressions
And I see fingerprints, footsteps
Tears in the rain
But nothing is more perfect
Than the smell of harmony
Interlude (Wilson):
(oooooh, ooooooh) x 2
Verse 2 (Wilson & Duda):
You've got your solitude
And I've got my peace
And nothing in that moment matters more
If only in just this one fragment
Together it grows
This tree may be aimless may be lost
Right where I need to be
Chorus x 2 (Wilson & Duda):
And I see impressions
And I see fingerprints, footsteps
Tears in the rain
But nothing is more perfect
Than the smell of harmony
Interlude:
(oooooh, ooooooh) x 2
Chorus x 2(Duda, and then Wilson & Duda):
And I see impressions
And I see fingerprints, footsteps
Tears in the rain
But nothing is more perfect
Than the smell of harmony
