Notes: This is my first chord I've written. It's a simple bluegrass song to strum and
sing along to.
However, if you watch the video, Adam is playing a lot of other notes as is usual for
his playing style.
I can't tab all of that out for you but I can give you enough to play the song
Here is the link for the video that I used to tab the song.

[Intro]
C G C
[Verse 1]
C G C
Far away and feeling gone, full of words I don't own
C G C
Folded up and put away, luck would have us back some day
C G C
C G C
All the rest keeps taking time, all the best in every line
C G C
All the heart will never see, setting sail remember me
[Chorus]
C/G G C
Keep me up on the western wind, write me down and back again
[Verse 2]
C G C
Straight across that lonesome sea, scenes of old break over me
C G C
Sometimes wish I were true, holding out to start anew
C G C
C G C
Underneath my broken door, upon the mask that I once wore
C G C
Unspoiled in a dresm, hear you walking back to me
[Chorus]
C/G G C
Keep me up on the western wind, write me down and back again
C G C
[Verse 3]
C G C
First to fall and last to fade, against the oldest games we played
C G C
Some faded fortunes steals, until it's all I feel
C G C
C G C
Let me roam the avenue, set the stage for meeting you
C G C
How, oh how the story goes, half the time none can know
[Chorus]
C/G G C
Keep me up on the western wind, write me down and back again
C/G G C
Keep me up on the western wind, write me down and back again
[Outro]

Write me down and round again
