First part: Bb Eb D F G F G F Eb The harmony part starts and ends the same, but diverges in between: Bb Bb D C Verse I C Anne, lets die in some dim town G My brown eyes wait to weigh us down Am The candles round the tub will drown Dm Dm7 In our after-noons C Music from our evening parlor G Darker than the autumn hour Am I gave my child twenty dollars Dm Dm7 For tearing at our moons -banjo solo- Verse II C Dark damp men muddied our house G In my dreams to bleed your blouse Am I smiled from my sleep to douse Dm Dm7 The horror of this hour C Our boy on dark hills blurry crawling G His rain-glazed shaking porches falling Am The homes of all his friends just sprawling Dm Dm7 Withering like flowers Verse III C Anne, Ive loved you from a boy G No other autumn could destroy Am The town our winds fused to enjoy Dm Dm7 Whispering dark farmlands C Tearing moons, these moons are tearing G Swearing terror inside their daring Am Crumbling prayers, dark autumns faring Dm Dm7 Straight out of our hands End with a couple more runs through the chords Sources: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_wksmHg5x8&feature=endscreen&NR=1 http://www.frontierruckus.com/content http://www.frontierruckus.com/songbook ************************************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | v downstroke | ^ upstroke | T Thumb ************************************
