Will you search through the loamy earth for me

version 2
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:2nd fret
Put a capo on the 2nd fret, but make it leave out the low E string. That way
we have a Drop D tuning,
but are still able to play Standard tuning chords.
Picking and chord wise it's basically the same as The Wrote & The Writ.
I'm going to tab the pattern out once and
then you'll have to apply it to the other chords he uses.
Listen to the song for timing!

I'm with the ghosts of the men who can never sing again,
There's a place follow me.
Where a love lost at sea.
Is waiting for you.
Is waiting for you.
(Additional Lyrics as of the last season's finale:)
Would you drift over rolling fields for me,
Hoard me in the highest bough.
I will be your treasure
But in history's rhyme there's a place and a time
And truth to the gold that the folds cannot hold
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you

Will you search through the lonely earth for me?
Climb through the briar and bramble
I'll be your treasure
I felt the touch of the kings and the breath of the wind
I knew the call of all the song birds
They sang all the wrong words
I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
Will you swim through the briny sea for me?
Roll along the ocean's floor?
I'll be your treasure
I'm with the ghosts of the men who can never sing again
There's a place, follow me
Where a love lost at sea
Is waiting for you
Is waiting for you
