Title: Shepherd Artist: Anaïs Mitchell Album: Young Man In America Tabber: PriapicPrimate Tempo = 90 Steel Guitar This tab is mostly based on the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMbsM1P3044), but it seems to me to be the same as the studio version for the most part, with the only exception I can hear at the moment being the end of bar 5 of the riff. This riff runs throughout the song, alternating between using the first-time and second-time endings listed here according to the vocals. Legend L - tied note x - dead note h - hammer on/pull off b - bend s - slide ~ - vibrato g - ghost note > - accentuated note t - trill M - palm mute . - staccato P - popping (bass) S - slapping (bass) + - tapping W - wide vibrato < - fade in w - whammy bar = - tremolo picking v - brush up ^ - brush down V - pick stroke up n - pick stroke down Capo at 6 Let ring throughout Play bass notes (A+E strings) gently 3/4: E |----------------------------------------| B |----------------------------------------| G |--0--------0--------0-----------0-------| D |--2s-4-----4s-2-----0-----------0-------| A |--------------------------s5------------| E |----------------------------------------| -----------------------------------0----| -----------------------0----------------| -----------------------------0----------| --------0-----------0-----------0-------| ----------------------------------------| --3-----------3-----------3-------------| ----------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------| --0--------0--------0-----------0-------| --2s-4-----4s-2-----0-----------0-------| --------------------------s5------------| ----------------------------------------| -----------------------------------0----| -----1g----------------1h-0-------------| -----------------------------0----------| --------2-----------2-----------0-------| ----------------------------------------| --3-----------3-----------3-------------| -----------------------0----------------| -----------3----------------------------| --0h-2-----------2-----------0----------| --------0-----------0-----------0-------| ----------------------------------------| --2-----------0-----------0-------------| 4/4: -----------------------------------0----------------| --0h-1-----------------1h-0-------------------------| -----------------------------0-----------0-----0----| --------2-----------2-----------2-----------2-------| ----------------------------------------------------| --3-----------3-----------3-----------3-------------| 3/4: ----------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------| --0--------0--------0-----------0-------| --2s-4-----4s-2-----0-----------0-------| --------------------------s5------------| ----------------------------------------| 1st time: -----------------------------------0---|| -----------------------0---------------|| -----------------------------0--------o|| --------0-----------0-----------0-----o|| ---------------------------------------|| --3-----------3-----------3------------|| 2nd time: -----------------------------------0----|| -----1g----------------1h-0-------------|| -----------------------------0----------|| --------2-----------2-----------0-------|| ----------------------------------------|| --3-----------3-----------3-------------||
