Golden Thread Tabs

(ver. 3)
Passenger
(Intro)
An attempt at the intro to Passenger's "Golden Thread".I quite liked
Bobatron1's chords (version 1 of the tabs) to this song, so I hope they don't
mind me posting their work for practicality; maybe people wanna play through
the whole song!
The intro is a bit of a stretch at first, but, with practice, can quickly be
learnt.

Tuning: Standard
Capo: 7

Verse 1:

G                        C
Theres lights on in a window
                        Em
And a signpost in the snow
                 C
Theres a golden coin beneath your pillow

G                   C
Theres parachutes above you
               Em
And lifeboats below
                   C
And a heart that loves you
Yeah I think you know


INTRO


G                          C
Theres treasure maps well hidden
                     Em
And diamonds in the dirt
                   C
Theres a golden thread weaved into your shirt
G                        C
Theres a kiss for every tear
                       Em
That rolls down your cheek
                      C                            
And words i shouldnt hear and words you shouldnt speak

G           C         D      G
So tell me one more lie my dear
           C        D      G
Whisper softly so nobody hears
          Em        D            C
Keep me hanging on for another year
     
Oh tell me one more lie my dear

(same)
Well theres whiskey and blankets
And a bonfire when youre cold
Ill hold a golden breath till im silver and old

With only hope to keep alive
And only time to kill
Theres a fool that loved you and he loves you still

(same)
So tell me one more lie my dear
Whisper softly so nobody hears
Keep me hanging on for another year
                            Am
Oh tell me one more lie my dear

Am                           Em
Spin me one more tale sweet heart
                                           G
Weave golden needle and thread through my heart
                                           D
Whisper all the things you know i long to hear
            C        D      G
Oh tell me one more lie my dear
