Capo 1

Intro: starting at 0:26 in song. 
    G-D-A-Bm
    G-D-G-D-A-D

       G           D       A             Bm
He was born in the woods,  torn from his home
            G         D                 G          A  
Well he was naked and destined,   to be out on his own.
       G         A                D             Bm
And he waited in darkness, hoping someone might see
     G            D              G      D A    D
From something so rough,  what a treasure he'd be

G             A         D
Stronger than steel and wood
G                   A       D
Seen me through the bad and good
             G            A        D            Bm           G       A
And when I'm hangin' by a string,  every little thing is understood
                   N&C
Between Martin and me

Repeat intro:
    G-D-A-Bm
    G-D-G-D-A-D

          G             D                 A               Bm
Well he's hollow in the middle,  from the shape that he's in
            G              D                 G            A 
He's either filled up with music,  or locked in his shell again
       G               A           D             Bm
And it takes some fine tuning,  to make him come around
           G             D             G   D A       D
But he's a huge piece of me,  and I'll never put him down

G             A         D
Stronger than steel and wood
G                   A       D
Seen me through the bad and good 
             G            A        D            Bm            G       A
And when I'm hangin' by a string,  every little thing is understood
                   N&C
Between Martin and me
                              

                                                      Fast Strum   Not 100% Right.
Instrumental Strum a few times each: Bm-G-D-A-Bm-G-(G-A-D-Bm-Bm-A-G-D)


        G    D               A           Bm
He is a good friend,  and he has his own voice
        G            D        A                D
And you get what you give, sometimes it's just noise
    G                D              A              Bm
But if you treat him well,  he will last your life long
              G          D              G     D   A D
And if you're honest and open,  he will write you a song
                               N&C
Write you a song,   write you a song


G             A         D
Stronger than steel and wood
G                   A       D
Seen me through the bad and good
             G            A        D            Bm           G......A....
And when I'm hangin' by a string,  every little thing is understood
A....        G            A        D            Bm           G      A
(hangin'on)  hangin' by a string,  every little thing is understood
                   N&C
Between Martin and me

Outro:
