 A?  (no idea if this is right. It's the same chord that stumped
  me in the interlude of Easy Now)
 Throughout the song the D string in the C & Gsus4 chords and the G string in
 the Fmaj7 are hammered on (middle finer), listen for it & you can hear it.
 The Em6 is pulled off to Em every time it's played
 by removing the index finger from the B string.
 In the intro at the end of ever second bar it's played,
 the D string is dropped from the Fsus2 & from the C.
It's  that time of  year
 When the  signs of life reappear
 And the  tide will be coming in soon
 We must  harvest the past  years of the  moon
 same as verse chords)
 It's that time of day
 When you & I have nothing left to say
 We must find a new way to start
 Oh it was a blind architect who built the heart
 Play intro chords x2
 It's that time of night
 When the dead start coming back to life
 And the stars burn bright in the gloom
 And I am wreathed in these memories of you
 It's that time again
 We must ask the old question
 How did we grow so far apart?
 Ask the blind architect who built the heart
 How did we  grow so far apart?
 How did we  grow so far apart?
 How did we  grow so far apart?
 Ask the blind  architect  who built the heart
 End on C
