 D                   Em9
 I never felt magic crazy as this
 D                           Em9
 I never saw moons near the meaning of the sea
 D                               Em9
 I never held the motion in the palm of my hand
 D                             Em9
 Or felt sweet breezes in the top of the tree
                 Asus4           Em11 A7sus4 D   Em9  D  Em9
 But now you're here, brighten my northern sky
 
 D                           Em9
 Been a long time that I'm waiting
 D                            Em9
 Been a long time that I've blown
 D                            Em9
 Been a long time that I've wondered
 D                           Em9
 Through the people I have known
            Asus4                            Em11 A7sus4 D
 Oh if you would and you could straighten my new mind's eye

 Would you love me for my money
 Would you love me for my head
 Would you love me through the winter
 Would you love me till I'm dead
 Oh if you would and you could come grow your home on high
 
 I never felt magic crazy as this
 I never saw the moon neath the meaning of the sea
 I never held emotion in the palm of my hand
 Felt sweet breezes in the top of the tree
 But now you're here, brighten my northern sky

 NOTES:  Not so long ago I figured this song out using standard tuning.  I 
 since think I've gotten more or less the actual alternate tuning version 
 figured out, but I'm rather new to thing alternate tuning thing so I may 
 have some big mistakes. 
 On the middle part, play the notes shown but you can also continue to 
 strum a bit, especially where the chords are shown fully.
 You may notice I included Em7 but it isn't mentioned in the song.  Add 
 this at the ends of lines (when you would be otherwise playing Em9) for a 
 little variety.
