Where The Fence Is Low (Siberia Acoustic Version) - Lights
Tab by: akd56205

This is my first tab, but the ones for this song posted on here werent exactly
right and were a bit confusing in my opinion.
When playing the second verse and chorus, it sounds good if you hammer on your
middle finger on the D string when playing the C/G and Em chords.

Tuning: Standard; Capo on 4th fret; tab and chords relative to capo.

Chords:
C/G          Em             D            G           Am

Verse 2:
        C/G
Each shadow I walk
                   Em
From the edge of the forest
                C/G
And the shape of the hands
                 Em     D
That break the ground for us.
            C/G
The fear that contains
             Em
And binds like a blessing
             C/G
Ive been here before
            Em    D
Then again Im guessing.


Chorus:
               G
Im off on my rope here
               C/G
Im off on my own here
               G
And I find my hope here
            C/G
I find my own here
            Am
Im off on my rope here
           C/G
Where the fence is low
G           C/G
Where the fence is low
G              C/G
Where the fence is low


G   C/G    X4


Bridge:
G    C/G   G   C/G
Mmm, Mmm, Mmm, Mmm
G    C/G   G   C/G
Low, Low, Low, Low


Chorus:
               G
Im off on my rope here
               C/G
Im off on my own here
               G
And I find my hope here
            C/G
I find my own here
            Am~~
Im off on my rope here
           C/G~~
Where the fence is low



Here are the full lyrics to Verse 1:

Where the fence is low
And the water is rising
And the fire comes down
And the dark fills the skies in.
One foot on the ledge
Im feeling for safety
Somewhere between sure
And I dont know, maybe.
