Attempt to capture chords for the track from Passenger's new album
One for the Road (Songs from the Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry the Musical)

Capo 5 to play these shapes with the album version
For the Am7* add the pinky on fret 3 of the high e (x02013)
This is my first pass on this one. I will revisit it to try to figure out the
nuance and maybe add a couple bits of tab.
Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]D/F#[/ch
It feels like years since I've looked in your eyes
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch
And I've missed them every day
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
So blue and bright now like the summer skies
ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Against my sad suburban grey
ch]Em[/ch
Oh Harold, you've changed
ch]A7[/ch
And I feel estranged
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C/G[/ch
And like I've been cut into quarters
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
It's been a lifetime since I held your hand
ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And now it feels just like a dream
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
So rough and rugged now you've lived the land
ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Holding mine so small and clean
ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Oh Harold, you've been
ch]A7[/ch
Drifting downstream
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C/G[/ch
And you left me in the shallow waters
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch]* [ch]Am7[/ch
And I don't know if I can do this anymore
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
It doesn't feel like it felt before
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
There's so much less and yet there's so much more
ch]D7[/ch
I've spent a lifetime with you
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I've given everything
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
Perhaps I've nothing left to give you
ch]C[/ch
Other than my words
ch]Dadd11[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
But I can't find the words to say
Instrumental
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
It's been forever since I heard you laugh
ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And now it sounds just like a song
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
So soft and soothing yet it breaks my heart
ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
For I'm not sure where I belong
ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Maureen, it's strange
ch]A7[/ch
So much has changed
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C/G[/ch
And I fear the daylight's getting shorter
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch]* [ch]Am7[/ch
For I'd love to show you all the beauty that I've seen
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The morning rain upon the hills of green
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch]*
The evening sunlight on the mountain stream
ch]D7[/ch
You say you can't come with me
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
But I know that I can't stay
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]B7[/ch
I need something you can't give me
ch]C[/ch
I wish I had the words
ch]Dadd11[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
But I can't find the words to say
Outro
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Cm[/ch
You know it's strange, but I just can't recall
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Falling in love or even meeting you at all
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gadd9[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
Funny how these memories slip away
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Cm[/ch
So for now we'll draw the line
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D/F#[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
You walk your road and I'll walk mine
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
Until the day that we can find
N.C. [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Gsus4[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]
The words to say
