Or tunnels to 


gates of white

I got my knuck

By a lady in b

And I held my

told me, "son,

             
 fear is the h

So I never wen

*************************************************************************************
This is a great, sparse little folk song that emphasizes the bottom half of the
chords and strums mostly on the upbeats. The way this is done is by picking the bottom
two notes of the chord on the downbeats of the verses.

For example, with the F chord, it's played something like this, but the upper half of
the chord is strummed more than once in the rise and fall of the strumming hand:

e   1      1
B   1      1
G   2      2
D   3      3
A   3      3
E   x      x

The chorus is pretty much exactly like the intro.
