Listen to the record for the picking pattern, or just make your own...because he doesn't
keep a constant one.
Make sure to emphasize the bass notes while picking, especially the low D string on the
chord.
INTRO: D (X 4)
VERSE 1:
What's missing is
What's missing is
What's missing is
Some kind of pillow
Some loving willow
Some care once denied
Now dissolved inside
D (X 4)
VERSE 2:
What's plenty is
What's plenty is
What's plenty is
One God
Six tongues
Five breathes
Four lungs
D (X 4)
VERSE 3:
What's rhythm is
What's rhythm is
What's rhythm is
Plenty of things missing
Steps taken, lips kissing
New harmony on an awesome scale
Meat against meat
Under sail
