Off the album Out of the Moon, which hit #2 on the New Zealand charts (2005).
Sounds best if all A chords are played as barre chords (with barre on 5th fret, E shape).
In addition, barre chords of various shapes are recommended in some (but not all)
instances of D, E, and Bm chords.

Verse 1:

[Bm]The cars and mo[E]untains
[A]The palace [C#m]gates
And I s[A]ee (I see) you r[C#m]ising [F#m]in the [D]li[Dsus2/F#]ght above [E]me
