On the record John's guitar is tuned a whole step flat.

Listen to the recording to get the best idea as to how this is done.

Lots of palm mutes are used. :)

through the shifting colors in the sky
            G          D
i heard the wild geese call
D                            Asus4
and the light was bright and clear and cold
     G          D
over eastern montreal
D               C
and although, i know
Asus4              G
you're only toying with me now,
D                 C
and although, you hold
      Asus4                 G
your affection for me like a bone on a string

   D                     Asus4
i love you, i love you because
D                      G                    D
you gave me sausage and cheese when i was hungry.

D                     Asus4
you hold your closed hand out to me
       G                         D
and you told me to guess what you had inside
      D                          Asus4
and i had a thousand guesses and some of them were good
G                              D
but i knew for sure that i was losing my mind
D                   C
when the scent came rising
G                  D
through the spaces between your fingers
D                          C
when the scent called to me
Asus4                                   G
and i knew we'd last at least until the end of december

   D                     Asus4
i love you, i love you because
D                      G                    D
you gave me sausage and cheese when i was hungry.
