If By Morning by The Pines
Tab by Alec Brandt
Finger picking isn't too hard here. You got it.
Intro (x2):
Am Em F G
Am Em F -
Am Em F G
My bell tower's ringing but it isn't you singing
Am Em F
we don't know that song anymore
Am Em F G
and winter bones breaking if it ain't shook it's shaking
Am Em F
this tangle of fate outside my door
Intro (x1)
Am Em F G
Oh threadbare in peril this cold christmas carol
Am Em F
we jump from the bridge in our mind
Am Em F G
it's one for the money, at two you go hungry
Am Em F
my blue shoes are draggin the line
- F -
C Am
Leave a lantern, on the trail
F C G F
I'm not asking for much just your meadowsweet touch
C G Am
If by morning you're ready to sail
F C G F
don't wait for so long cause you know that I'm gone
- F -
Am Em F G
You can lock up your treasure and take drastic measures
Am Em F
we march toward the grave all the same
Am Em F G
it's a short life of trouble your church turns to rubble
Am Em F
and beauty has never had a name
Am Em F G
well my head's in your branches, I squandered my chances
Am Em F
I've given the last I can give
Am Em F G
this empire's falling the pace is appalling
Am Em F
how can a poor man stand such time and live
- F -
C Am
So leave a lantern, on the trail
F C G F
I'm not asking for much just your meadowsweet touch
C G Am
If by morning you're ready to sail
F C G F
don't wait for so long cause you know that I'm gone
- F -
Am C (I think the chords switch here, correct me if I'm wrong)
So leave a lantern, on the trail
F C G F
I'm not asking for much just your meadowsweet touch
C G Am
If by morning you're ready to sail
F C G F
don't wait for so long cause you know that I'm gone
Outro:
