Doves Circled The Sky Tab

Hey everybody!

If you're a fan of the band, welcome!
If you hate the band but want to play the song anyways, welcome I guess!
If you're a member of the band, what are you doing here? You should probably know this 
Also, hi, how's it going.

This is an easy song in terms of chords.
There are three sections, and the chords are all pretty basic.

Rhythm is an entirely different thing.
However, I can't really convey that sort of thing to you on paper or screen, so figure 
out yourself (and have a good time doing it!).

I am a keyboard player so I might not tab things properly.

OK!

Doves.. circled the sky
                  
And light shone down
                 
While we stood knee-deep in the stream
                

Chords.. rang out warm and clear
                         
Sweet major chords
              
And they were ones and fours and fives
               

As we stood there, so straight and still
                      
Our hair blowing softly
                 
And our shirts and pants were all white
                   
All linen and gleaming
              

Wind.. came out from the trees
                         
A voice spoke out clear
                   
It clearly spoke down from high above
                  

"You.. are my chosen ones
                    
Chosen to be
          
The way that you've already become"
                    

Then the trees all groaned and they swayed
                  
The wind roared, the earth shook
                     
Then it all went quiet at once
               
The air cold and still
                 

Then we all walked back up the trail
                  
No one said a word
               
We got to the cabin and packed
             
We packed up our things
                    

"You are my chosen ones
                    
Chosen to be the way that you've already become
                                
Yes, you're chosen to be
                    
Chosen to stay the way that you have been all along
                                 

Once rehearsal is done
                  
Open the gates
          
Let heaven's floodgates open wide
               
Now, rehearsal is done
                  
Open the gates
           
Let heaven's floodgates open waaiaiaiiiaiiiiiiiii
                              

Aahhhh ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh
                           
Aahhhh ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh
                           

Am and E will end it. Keep yelling as long as you like.
