I just discovered this beautiful song a couple days ago, and I'm just awed at the pure
beauty and simplicity of it. Reminds me of how much our culture has lost over the years...

I couldn't find any chord/lyrics sheets on the 'net for it, so I went ahead and made one
myself, which was nice because I got to listen to the song over and over (plus, my ear
needed the practice). The chords are pretty straightforward; in the chart I provided, I 
have the E7 tabbed out as an E major chord with the pinky on the third fret. You can play
the E7 the way you probably already know it, a regular E without the ring finger; 
they're both E7 chords, I just thought it sounded better this way. Anyway, I hope you enjoy 
playing/singing it, and if it's helpful please rate/comment.
