A Hymn For The Exiled Anais Mitchell Tabbed by: Sam Bevet Email: skittlesdagod13@yahoo.com Tuning: Standard After the first little walk up, the song is pretty much just alternating bass note to mixed with some strumming e|-------------| B|-----0----1--| G|-2-----------| D|-------------| A|-------------| E|-------------| Dm One two three four five six seven

the ^Amword came down to h^Dmim from heaven and ^Amnaked as an ^Bbanimal, he k^Am7new: ^Ameverything of f^Dmlesh and bone ^Amhe could call it ^Dmall his own if ^Amhe could name it, he could ^Bblay claim to it, ^Am7too

but ^Dmafter all the w^Amord was spoken you ^Dmsent him out in^Amto the open ^Bball alone to ^Dmmake his broken p^Gromise whole again ^Ameight nine ten ^Dmeleven twelve ^Amdid you see how ^Dmfar he fell' ^Amdid you watch him c^Bbovering his ^Dmbody in his sh^Game'

and wanting you n^Emear him though you couldn't ^Amhear him he was f^Dmalling down with ^Gyour name in his mouth

a^Am thousand thousand ^Dmyears pass through me ^Amstoned on lonelin^Dmess and movies where p^Ameople make their ^Bblove in foreign tongue^Am7s ^Amevery family l^Dmocks their door ^Amevery man in u^Dmniform ^Amreminds me of the ^Bbbody of my own on^Am7e

^Dmi knew you bef^Amore i met you ^Dmi've forgotten w^Amhy i left you ^Bball i wanna do is ^Dmget back into y^Gour good grace ^Amcall you by your h^Dmundred names ^Amtill it makes you ^Dmmine again ^Amtill i get my w^Bbill back in this ^Dmgodforsaken p^Glace

i want you n^Emear me i know you can't ^Amhear me, now but i'm f^Dmalling down with ^Gyour name i want you n^Emear me i wish you could ^Amhear me, now while i'm f^Dmalling down with ^Gyour name in my mouth
