The Canopy - The Dear Hunter


This is just the basic chords to play along with.
At some points, Casey plays the note above the root note to give
it a country feel.

Verse 

G                                                           Em
I was spinning through the air when I thought my life was ending
             C                      D
But I was really on the ground and you were lying right next to me
G                                                     Em
I looked right into your eyes, and I found myself pretending
               C                           D
That we were high above the canopy but tethered to the trunk of a tree

Chorus

Am               D        Em        G 
Slow down, take time, and see the forest for the leaves
Am          D           G              C    D
I know that I should practice what I preach

Verse 2

G                                                  Em
I was falling to the ground when I felt my body breaking
             C                      D
But I had fallen in your lap, with my head tilted back
                    G                                           Em
So I could see the sun eclipsed by your hair that left a halo hanging
          C                        D                              G
Waiting above so when you go you don't have to wait to get your wings

Chorus

Am               D         Em        G
Slow down, take time, and see the forest for the leaves
Am          D           G              C    D
I know that I should practice what I preach
Am               D        Em        G 
Slow down, take time, and see the forest for the leaves
Am          D           G              C    D
I know that I should practice what I preach
