FANTASY MAN by The Swell Season

I saw the first version to this and it didn't sound quite right. Marketa plays this
a capo on the 2nd fret, which the previous tab recognized. In this tab I'm showing all the
used in relation to the capo. This is my first tab but I know this is 100% accurate.
seen this song played live by Mar and not only was it stunningly beautiful to say the
but I was able to see how she fretted each chord and where. I love Mar and I love this
Have fun playing it, just be sure your heart isn't broken when you sing it...
Chords used (relative to capo):
*be sure to finger pick through the whole song, it just sounds better
INTRO: Am7/E G5 X2
La la la la
Theres diamonds growing in the mountains
Beneath the pressure of all time
They grow in hope and expectation
Waiting for your hands to find
Cause only you could reach inside me
And figure out the worth
Of a life I lived providing
What it was you needed most
La la la la lah
And if everything is measured by the
hole it leaves behind then this
mountain has been levelled
And theres no more diamonds in the mine
Go on now just leave it
The timing wasnt right
And the force that swept us both away
Was too strong for us to fight
Fantasy Man you are always
one step ahead of me
Well I never heard the warning
Oh I havent got things right
Yet the sun came out this morning
And filled my room with light
So move on now, you are forgiven
Lets put it down to life
The story of two lovers
Who danced both edges of the knife
(hand claps, knee slaps)
In the station youre standing
Not knowing what you want
And the secrets that were defending
Have become our only bond
Just be patient while I wait here
Our journeys out of sync
While youre out there running in the chaos
I need some time to think
oh oh oh oh...
la da da da da da dum da dum
Fantasy Man you are always
one step ahead of me
Well I never heard the warnings
Oh I havent got things right
Yet the sun came out this morning
And filled my room with light
So go on now, you are forgiven
Lets put it down to life
The story of two lovers
Who danced both edges of the knife
la la la da da la la
