The Whole Is Wide Lyrics

I saw her play this the other day. There was no piano player so it was a re-worked version with band accompaniment, slowed down a touch. It was nice that way although - how can I say it delicately? - the guitarist probably isn't the best choice for the harmonies. OTOH, as my friend pointed out, how many people would sound good next to her?

She opted not to go for some of the highest notes but still went for some of them and made it look as effortless as most people speak. I paid special attention to the "moon, rune" bit to double check it but couldn't tell any difference so I'm leaving it as is.
