Tuning: Standard
Hey there; been a while. Here's a terrific Sparklehorse tune for you, that I can't
believe hasn't been tabbed yet. The song itself is recorded on a slightly overdriven /
compressed acoustic guitar, but you can strum this out cleanly and it still sounds wonderful:
Intro: E G D Am
Every other A-Minor chord, Mark does a little riff like this:
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------0h1--0---------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----2--------2-0-----------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--0-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Verse:
EOnce I was a Gbig old bear
DReigning blows on Amsparkly snares
EIn the woods afGter the snow
DThe white noise witch her Amhammers cold
ERest beneath the Gpine and rose
GIn our suits and DSunday clothes
Chorus:
CCheer Gup my Cbrother D
CIt's gonna Gbe alC-right D
All the instruments cut out, save for this guitar riff:
e|-----------3----------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------0--------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----4---3------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Am I know your Ghearts are heavy asC mountains D
e|-----------3----------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------0--------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----4---3------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Am We're gonna Ggo back home oneD day
Verse - Chorus - Verse - Fuzz/Tinkle out...
There are a few flourishes on the guitar, some lazy hammer-ons here and
there. They aren't hard to pick up. Make it your own, it's a beautiful song.
Thanks for reading!
