This is my first tab and I think it needs some corrections, anyway this is the beautiful song by Angela Little
aka Ophelia of the Spirits from Baz Luhrmann's film Australia.

Intro: G    C    G    C
 
G   C    G    C
Sing and I will hear you, no matter where you are
G    A    C    D
A song to light the darkest night, and guide me from a a far
G    C    D
And I will never be alone, now I know you're...
G     D    Em   C
...somewhere, you're everywhere to me
G    C    G    D
You're the color in the sky, a reason to believe
G    D    C    Em
And when the rain falls down, you tell a story
    C    
And I will hear you, 
    G
always near you, 
    D         G
By the boab tree
G    C    G     C
Lay your arms around me, like the falling rain
G    A    C    D
Let the feeling drown me, and life begins again
G    C    D
And I will never be afraid, now I know you're...
G     D    Em   C
...somewhere, you're everywhere to me
G    C    G    D
The warming of the sun upon - the earth beneath my feet
G    D    C    Em
And when the rain falls down, you tell a story
    C    
And I will hear you, 
    G
always near you, 
    D         G
By the boab tree

(Instrumental break)
 
G     D    Em   C
Now you're somewhere, you're everywhere to me
G    C    G    D
You're the color in the sky - and you're the earth beneath my feet
G    D    C    Em
And when the rain falls down, you tell a story
    C    
And I will hear you, 
    G
always near you, 
    D         G
By the boab tree
