Alright this amazing, beautiful song was originally released on Nathaniel's debut album
known as The Wheel - Desire and Dissolving Men, but since he no longer performs as such,
and still plays the song live, I'll put it here.
Artist: The Wheel
Song: Solomon
Album: Desire and Dissolving Men
Chords used:
Em7 [-0-] Cadd9? [-0-] G? [-0--]
[-3-] [-3-] [-3-----------------------------]
[-0-] [-0-] [-0-----------------------------] I'm not sure of these
chord names,
[-2-] [-2-] [-0-----------------------------] but the shapes are correct.
[-2-] [-3-] [-2-----------------------------]
[-0-] [-0-] [-3-----------------------------]
This has a typical Nathaniel strum pattern.
Using the thumb, on the down strokes of the bass notes,
and lightly picking the upstroke with the index and ring finger.

[------------------------------------]
[------3----3----3------3----3----3--]
[-------0----0----0------0----0----0-] This is pretty close for the verse
[---------------------2--------------] but I don't feel the strumming is as
[----2----2----2----3-3----3----3----] important, because the song is like
[--0-0----0----0----0------0----0----] 85% vocals.
Em7 Cadd9
Verse 1: (not a 100% percent on lyrics)
Em7 Cadd9
I want to be the drum (drug?), that slows me down
Em7 Cadd9
I want to care to not, break through
Em7 Cadd9
I want to have no sense, or meaning
Em7 Cadd9
I want to start myself, anew (on you?)
Chorus: (strumming opens up a little more)
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck living, a good life
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck living, a good life
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck living, a good life
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck living, a good life
Em7 Cadd9
A good life
Em7 Cadd9
Em7 Cadd9
I want a piece that glimmers, to show them all
Em7 Cadd9
I want to be delivered, from you
Em7 Cadd9
I want to smile but got, no reason now
Em7 Cadd9
I want way to bench, the truth
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck, living a good life
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck, living a good life
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck, living a good life
G Cadd9
Aint it hard luck, living a good life
Em7 Cadd9
A good life

That's it. Pretty close anyway,
the picking is a little more intricate than this,
but you get the jist anyway.
