Orignially played tuned half step down but I wanted to chart this out so I didnt' have to re-tune all the time
Not entirely accurate maybe, but it's good enough for me.

[Intro]
E

G#m D#m E
Oooh, oooh x4

[Verse 1]
B D# E B
My oh my, how I waited for the night
D#
to come
E B D#
But when it did I missed the day.
B D#
Cold and numb,
E B
I stood praying for the sun
D# E
But when it came I missed the feeling
G#m D#
Of the pretty rain.


[Chorus]
E G#m D#m
And I want to be like a pine In the middle of a snowstorm--
E G#m D#m
Stood in the ground, All around me the weight of the wind.
E F# G#m F#
I want to bear what is real And forsake all the other
C#
things
E
I want to be the forest (I want to be the forest)
F#
I want to be the ground (I want to be the ground)
E
A solitary chorus (A solitary chorus)
F#
I want to be the sound (I want to be the sound)

[Verse 2]

B D# E B
By and by, how I waited for a time
D#
But when it came
E B D#
I just let it slip away
B D#
And now it's gone,
E B
and that cannot be undone,
D#
So in my mind,
E B D#
I go begging for another day.


[Chorus]
E G#m D#m
'Cause I want to be like a pine In the middle of a snowstorm--
E G#m D#m
Stood in the ground All around me the weight of the wind.
E F# G#m F#
I want to bear what is real And forsake all the other
C#
things
E
I want to be the forest (I want to be the forest)
F#
I want to be the ground (I want to be the ground)
E
A solitary chorus (A solitary chorus)
F# A
I want to be the sound

[Bridge]

as the water runs
G#m
Down the hills from us
B
And turns to leaves in the trees And they freeze
E
and all fall to brittle piles.
A
Every once
G#m
Every once in a little while,
B
I want to breathe,
E
just Like a little child
C#
Like a little child
E
Like a little child

E

[Verse 3]

B D# E B
My oh my, how I waited for the light
D#
but when it came
E
I just missed the darkness.


[Final Chorus]

E G#m D#m
And I want to be like a pine In the middle of a snowstorm--
E G#m D#m
Stood in the ground, All around me the weight of the wind.
E F# G#m F#
I want to bear what is real And forsake all the other
C#
things
E
I want to be the forest (I want to be the forest)
F#
I want to be the ground (I want to be the ground)
E
A solitary chorus (A solitary chorus)
F#
I want to be the sound as the water runs
E
I want to be the forest (I want to be the forest)
F#
I want to be the ground (I want to be the ground)
E
A solitary chorus (A solitary chorus)
F#
I want to be the sound
