Tuning: E A D G B E
Tabbed by: Mohamed Awad (Cairo, Egypt. Sept 8th, 2017)
Another gem from Beast Epic. The studio version is played in open tuning with many hammer-ons, picking and
incomplete chords. This is just how I play it in standard tuning.
[Verse 1]
FSongbirds in theGm morning, hCsus2ad my Fhead Flost in the Gmtall trees
I knew wBbell, well I wouldF say
Dreaming my Cdry Bbweeds
FStray light finds itsGm way to Csus2all of Fus
FSay something Gmgreen, it comesCsus2 back
BbSign light on my Flips, let 'em kiss, Cdark Bbleaves
Bb Bb/A Gmadd4
Let the hands of the wrong prophets heal me all they should
Bb Bb/A Gmadd4
Let the wine of the poison Jesus says tastes good
And Call those trees lay Bbdown if you were a Fbird and fell into my Farms
[Chorus]
If I Dmwrote your song in Bbstone
If I Dmwore your wings back Bbhome
Where the Dmdreams in the backwater Cdrown us Bbfar from Fhome
[Verse 2]
GivFe this to the Gmgray, it Csus2comes back gFold
FBirds of the Gmmorning, Csus2they may kBbnow
BbKnow more than Fus, giving their hCymns for lBbife
Bb Bb/A Gmadd4
Let the waves on the wrong water say what they will say
Bb Bb/A Gmadd4
While the wind and the broken branches blow me away
CAll tall tree lay doBbwn if you were the Fbird who fell into my Farms
[Chorus]
I could Dmwrite your song in sBbtone
I could Dmwear your wings backBb home
Where the Dmdreams in the backwater Cdrown us Bbfar from hFome
