version 3
Tuning is drop D: DADGBE
I use triads for all but the C chords that end a line.
Major triads shapes used:
"D" shape "A" shape "E" shape
e--2-- 3rd e--5-- 5th e--10--| Root
b--3-- Root b--7-- 3rd b--10--| 5th
g--2-- 5th g--7-- Root g--11--| 3rd
d----- d----- d------|
a----- a----- a------|
E----- E----- E------|
Minor triad shape(s) used:
"A" shape
e-----
b--7-- 3rd
g--7-- Root
d--7-- 5th
a-----
E-----
Intro:
Starts using an E-shape at the 8th fret sliding up to 10th (C to D) then slide back to
8th fret (D to C). This is followed A-shaped C at the 3rd fret sliding up to 5 (C to D)
then back to 3rd fret. Then an E-shaped G at the third fret followed by A-Shaped C at 3
and ending on a D chord which brings you to the start of the lyrics. I do play the top
three strings open for one
beat just before the D chord at the end of the intro.
So in short: C->D, D->C, C->D, D->C, G, C, (open strum G,B,E strings), D.

[Intro]
Open up your eyes, see how life time flies
Open up and let the light back in
Open up your heart, let the loving start
Open up and let the light back in
[Verse 1]
I was thinkin' of you and me making love beneath the tree
And now I wonder could it be?
Thinking 'bout the times we had, some were good, some were bad
Guitar fighting the TV
[Chorus]
I was thinkin' about you and me
I was thinkin' about you and me
I was thinkin' of you and me
I was thinkin' about you and me
[Verse 2]
Looking at you just the other night, dancing in the evening light
True love conquers all
Old man sitting there, touch of grey, but he don't care
When he hears his children call
[Chorus]
I was thinkin' about you and me
I was thinkin' about you and me
I was thinkin'' of you and me
I was thinkin' about you and me
