Song: Song of Good Hope Artist: Glen Hansard Album: Rhythm and Repose Tabbed by: Jon Ransom Most of the leg work has been done by other people on this but I'll put up my tab based on Glen playing this song live and videos I've seen online of him playing it. This is 99% accurate. There is just one small part I haven't totally figured out and it's the third/fourth chord Glen uses in the beginning intro and bridge. Well, fair play, cheers all, and Gra mor! Commence to singing with your whole hearts! Chords Used: e |----3--------0-------3---------0----------| b |----0--------0-------1---------0----------| g |----2--------5-------0---------0----------| d |----0--------5-------3---------2----------| a |----0--------0-------0---------0----------| e |----3--------5-------0---------0----------| Gadd2 Am9 Fadd9 A7sus2/E Intro: G, Gadd2 (hammer on 2nd fret/3rd string) Am9 Verse 1:
GWell if we're gonna make cross this river alive Am9 you need to think like a boat and go with the tide D7 G and I know where you've been, it's really left you in doubt Am9 of ever finding a harbour or figuring this out D7 G Fadd9 A7sus2/E and you're gonna need all the help you can get so lift up your arms now and reach for it Am7 D7 Am7 D7 and reach for it Am7 D7 G

(Verse 2: live recorded version only) But if we're gonna make it through this trouble tonight Keep that truth in your mouth cutting through like a knife and I know where you've been has really left you in doubt of ever finding a harbour of figuring this out and we're gonna need all the help we can get so lift up your arms now and reach for it and reach for it
