Chords by Andr? Lindberg

Great song from his new album. Understood a lot of people couldn't play it so i've 
written the chords down for you. Standard Tuning. Album version has a capo on 7 
and is tuned a little low.

This is the major adaptations of the chords he uses. Numbers will be after 
relevant chords below to indicate a play. Other than this he basically just pulls 
of and hammers some random notes. You'll feel it.

(1)C-major, D-string, -2-3-2-0
(2)C-Major, D-string, -2-3-2-0-2-0
(3)G-major, A-string, -2-3-2

         GYou've (320003@1)thrown in just for me

We spent so many nights
Just gathering stones
The silver tears
Old sapphire bones
All the copper leaves
Then dreamt, now true
Look how they find their path
To cut right through
Like a rain, to help a river
But a river so hard to please
But I've grown to see the diamonds
You've thrown in just for me

Look when your hopeless child will figure
There are moments when hope's not
Only real when flagging far down a road
With an armful broken arrows
And no hand free for the bow
Your kid will lose a battle
But your ways
Will let him go
I lose my wish to drown
And aimless flee
What you've thrown to lose
Is still right here with me
