We Chords Seal: This chord has been reviewed to meet the official criteria of our Quality Team.
key: F#
Intro is strumming with some specific plucking of higher strings, kinda hard to explain but if you listen to
the song you'll understand. The strumming pattern also might pick up on the and of 4 not starting on 1??
*If anyone knows the solo you can add it, but I didnt feel like figuring it out*
[most of the chord changes in the song happen as he is finishing saying a line, most but not all]

F# F# F# F# B B F# F#

  F#
Never in my lifetime have these eyes of mine
                     B                 F#
Been fortunate to see the woman for me
But I hang around this old town
                                          B
Dealin' with the same crowds in the street
               F#
Will I ever see
         C#                              B      F#
You can find me on the hillside lookin' all around
 C#                                     B        F#
Or out there by the oak trees on the edges of town
It don't matter where I go
            B
It don't matter what I see
[Hold the B for some time, slight build]
                                            F#
Cuz I ain't ever gonna find the woman for me

[Small solo, instrumental]

 F#
She moves just like the springtime
                                          B
And she's quiet like the voices in the wind
             F#
That never end
When she calls me I come runnin'
                              B
It don't matter where I am
                F#
Cuz I am her man
       C#                          B         F#
We go out for a long walk by the dreamer's sea
   C#                                    B        F#
But the only footprints in the sand are left by me
From the top of the mountain
         B
To the bottom of the sea

[Long hold on B chord]
  B                                         F#
Tell me lord where do I find the woman for me

[Short solo here again]
F# F# B B F# F# B B F# F#

 F#
Well I thought I got a hold of her
                                  B                 F#
Back when I was young enough to fall for a crazy girl
 F#
But time went by and I found that
                                  B               F#
I was nothing more than just a boy in a crazy world
            C#                      B          F#
And I got dirt on my face and I'm losin' my mind
           C#                                     B      F#
I been swimmin' through this desert for the longest time

 F#
No matter where I go
 B
No matter what I see
 B
She's always on the other side
               F#
The woman for me

[longer end solo, similar to before]
F# B B F# F# B B F# F#
C# B/F# C# B/F#
From the top of the mountain
         B
To the bottom of the sea

[Long hold on B chord]
  B
Tell me lord where do I find the woman
                   F#
Oh the woman for me
