FINGERPICKING: 

C           Em 
I'll send a storm 
                D 
to capture your heart 
                C 
and bring you home. 
C                Em 
Ooh carry on the breeze 
                  D     C 
you'll never find me, gone. 
C                  Em 
Oh faster than the post train 
                D         C 
burning like a slow flame on, 
C            Em 
I'll send a storm 
                D 
to capture your heart 
              C 
and bring you home. 

Am               C 
Even though the landscape 
                 Em 
stretches like a hard day 
Am              C 
Even though the old man 
              Em 
says I have a fool's plan 
Am              C 
Oh despite the distance 
                Em 
you will see my footprints 
Am               C 
I will raise my flagpole 
                  Em 
I will turn these tables 
Am *  
'round 

STRUMMING: 

C           Em 
I'll send a storm 
                D 
to capture your heart 
                C 
and bring you home. 
C                Em 
Ooh carry on the breeze 
                  D     C 
you'll never find me, gone. 
C                  Em 
Oh faster than the post train 
                D         C 
burning like a slow flame on, 
C            Em 
I'll send a storm 
                D 
to capture your heart 
              C 
and bring you home. 

Am                   C 
Though I've said the worse things 
                Em 
and I can't reverse this 
Am                           C 
Secrets of the floor lay 
               Em 
gambled of the doorway 
Am               C 
Oh I've made the mistakes and 
                  Em 
I have learnt the hard way 
Am               C 
Even though you leave me 
               Em 
crying like a banshee 

FINGERPICKING: 
C           Em * 
I'll send a storm 
                D 
to capture your heart 
                C 
and bring you home. 
C                Em 
Ooh carry on the breeze 
                  D     C 
you'll never find me, gone. 
C                  Em 
Oh faster than the post train 
                D         C 
burning like a slow flame on, 
C            Em 
I'll send a storm 
                D 
to capture your heart 
              C 
and bring you home. 

NOTE: 
 * The changes between the fingerpicking and strumming aren't perfectly aligned  
with the verses, but change at the asterisks.  
 * When playing the strumming part for the Em chord in the Chorus, it's played  
with the same note changes on the e string as indicated in the tab.
