Here it is. All of the Decemberists' songs and albums in one tab. I'll try to keep it updated as they come out with new albums, but it will take a little bit of time to update however, so don't expect instant service ;). Also, songs that are on more than one album will not be repeated. There are also a few songs that are impossible to get chords for so I have the tab. Any songs with no "Original Tabbers" are ones tabbed by me. ------ =Separation Between Songs ~~~~~~ =Separation Within Songs (Such as between the crane wife 1 and 2) |||||| =Separation Between Albums 1.
