Vital Vessals Vindicate - The Dear Hunter Tabbed by: Tyler Gjersee Email: Gjersee@hotmail.com Tuning:Standard Another amazing Dear Hunter song. Most of the song is not played on guitar so you get some liberty as far as your interpretation. If any chords are wrong, please comment or e- mail me. Piano Intro: C G

^CSalt in the sky in the sweet summer air while ^Gmammoths depart A^Cbandon dispair with thirsty affairs of the^G heart

^AmBut the chances of escaping my heart are inadequat^Fe, and ^Amwhen all is said and done I'm left with my hi^Fstory

^CGood^Gbye, ^Fmy ^Geyes ^Amshed heavy t^Dmears. ^FOne for ever^Gy ^Csoul ^Gstill^Em sitting on the^Am fence ^Fbetween ^Gpain and arroga^Cnce

^CEbb to the left flow to the right. ^GThe exit's unflawed ^CThe boys on the train

The almighty tongue with prose ^Gspilled in vain

G^Coodb^Gye, ^Fmy ^Geyes ^Amshed heavy ^Dmtears.^F One for ^Gevery ^Csoul ^Gstill^Em sitting on^Am the fence ^Fbetween ^Gpain and arrogance

^CWe fall ^Fbeneath the ^Dmsea of ^Gdreams and f^Email to ^Ambreathe ^Funtil we r^Gesurface ^CWe fall ^Fbeneath the ^Dmsea of ^Gdreams and ^Emfail to^Am breathe until ^Fwe aw^Abaken again

String Interlude: Here are the chords. The strings have a lot of passing notes here so each chord will be a little weird at times. Several measures per chord.
