    This pattern flows through the whole song
  •  
    like so (caps on downbeats):
     
  • up here in the Crows nest i am Swimming through the Breeze
    D

  • D
    and High above an Albatross is following its Light
    G
  • and i will Sing to her as She flies by
    A D
    on this Beautiful Night
  •  
    Ahead is the horizon, always changing, it stands fast
    Far behind me are the desert islands, shipwrecks of the past
  • And I have seen the cannons sounding in the early morning light
    But I have left my battles for the day
    On this beautiful night
  •  
    Below me, all the sailors, they're on this journey too
    And each of us must make our unknown way upon the blue
  • So tonight we cast our worries, float jetsam on the tide
    And we'll watch them echo far away
    On this beautiful night
  •  
    For the bridge, Josh strums these chords
    Bm (x24432) F#m(244222) Em(022000) A7(x02020)
  •  
    Bm F#m
    the flat Earth may end
  • Em
    we may Sail off the edge
    A7
  • and Not be seen again
    Bm
    so i sing and hope my song will form
  • F#m
    a Rope of golden chords
    Em
  • so that I can rescue someone else
    A7
    should They fall overboard
  •  
    and then back to the original picking pattern (D,G,A)...
     
  • Because some of us are pirates and some of us are damned
    But all of us need all of us to ever find the land
    And though the passage of good hope may seem
  • Like a needles eye
    We're floating on tranquility
    On this Beautiful night
  •  
    Up here in the crows nest
    I am swimming through the breeze
  • One last memory from the sun
     
    Once you've got all this, you can start walking down to some
  • of the bass notes. Josh starts doing this towards the end of
    the song, starting with the transition from D to G:
     
  • ...D G A
    -------2-----------3---------3-----------3---------0----|
    -----3---3-------3---3-----3---3-------3---3-----2---2--|
  • ---2-----------0---------0-----------0---------2--------|
    ----------0-----------0---------0-----------0-----------|
    -0------0-----------2---------0--0h2------2--0----------|
  • -----------0h3---------2--------------------------------|
     
    He also sometimes adds an extra beat or two to the D pattern
  • by simply repeating the previous bass note before hitting the
    next one...
     
  • D
    e-------2---------2----------2----------2---|
    b-----3---3-----3---3------3---3------3---3-|
  • G---2---------2----------2----------2-------|
