The B7 you hear a lot of in the song is played x21202

[intro]
E B7 A B7

[verse]
E B7 A
And then there came a stranger
E B7 A
call her Highland Grace, a rearranger
E B7 A
I'd been searching in the mirror,
E B7 A
but seeing my own face didn't make it any clearer
E B7 A
I'd rage against the hard times
E B7 A
while others smiled to say, "Hey, take it easy."
E B7 A
And lo, this little angel
E B7 A
was standing in the rain, oh, just what I needed

[chorus]
E B7 F#m A

A E F#m A
Bound for Avalon with the birds 'round her head

E B7 A

E B7 A
I saw you drift away, farther and farther
E B7 A
My eyes pinned like diamonds,
