wrapped hard around me

I want open plains
and scattered trees
I want flower fields
I want salty seas
I want flatlands
soft and steady breeze
bringing scents of
lined-up orchard trees
dripping heavy
with pears and dancing leaves
I want flatlands
will you go there with me

Lyrics for VERSE 4 (repeated 8 times)
1) when it's said in the dark and you know it's always there
2) when it's dead in our heart but your mind is unafraid
3) when it's said in the dark and you know it's never coming back
4) when it's there in your heart in your mind you set it free
5) instrumental
6) instrumental
7) instrumental
8) instrumental

Notes
=====
I put this up because the other tabs don't have "VERSE 4" put up and / or are tuned
in standard (which works until you hit VERSE 4 of this tab).
Let me know if there's anything missing or off.
