Tuning: Standard The intro, verse and Chorus all uses some finger picking based around the same 4 chord progression. Listen to the song to get a feel for the picking and timing, but generally he's hitting the root note then the top two or three strings. I haven't shown the exact picking because he mixes it up a bit so just play around with it.

These lonely days and lonely nights, won't get no easier, with you There's a sea of faces under the streetlight, if only they knew From the bars to the backstreets, to the bars of a cave They're as free as the birds, that'll sing them home to a new day Ooooooohhhhhhh oooooooohhhhhhh I climb up to the mountaintop Climb up to the mountaintop And I'll walk across the valleys, for you. Oh I climb, I'll climb I'll walk, I'll walk, with you I've been writing in the book that your mother gave me
