This is his acoustic version, not sure if the album is a step up in pitch or not.
 
Lovely song, and this video by Christian Tierney is
what made me discover his music in the first place!
 
Chills on the last chorus for sure :O

[Verse 1]
Em (F#) GWe were raised under Grey skies,
G Cmaj7 Bm7But you'll never hear us complain
Em (F#) GOh, and - father led with examples
G Cmaj7 Bm7Of how to draw beauty from pain
Em (F#) GSo I found a thousand spring-times in her eyes
G Cmaj7 Bm7And I learned to play games in the rain
 
[Chorus]
Am7Oh, when you left us you didn't really Go
Bm7I know you're watching me from my head to my toes
Em7 Bm7And I will not Go without, I won't walk without you, no
Am7And truth be told, everybody knows
Bm7You put the food on my plate and you gave me my clothes
Em7 Bm7 Am7 Bm7
