There were no chords for this on here or anywhere for that matter so I decided to put
one up. This
is my first tab and I ran the song through Chordify and then transposed so the chords
are relative
to the capo. In standard tuning this song is played with the Capo on the fourth fret.
If you
see Houndmouth live or see a video of them doing this song you will probably see the
capo on 5. I
had to learn the heard way that for some reason Matt Myers has his guitar tuned half a
step down
so just keep that in mind when watching him play this song or any other song by them.
Anyway enjoy!
Standard tuning
Capo 4
Intro: (C, Em, Am, G) x2
Verse 1:
Y[C]ou got some things to say
But you never[Em] like to speak
So you grab [Am]a pen and you head out [G]for the table[C]
[C]You scotch taped a note down
Of wo[Em]rds that you wrote down
[Am]Resembling an old Englis[G]h fable[C]
Chorus:
And you were half way t[F]o Hardinsburg[Em][C]
And you were half way to[F] hell[G][Am]
When you heard t[F]he sound of the organ's bitter swell[Am][C]
(C, Em, Am, G)
Verse 2:
You're mode[C]ling the fashions while you're counting up your rations[Em]
Well, gir[Am]l you've got plans of y[G]our own[C]
[C]You're cursing the masses while you're looking through your g[Em]lasses
Well, gir[Am]l you ain't never go[G]ing back home[C]
Chorus:
And you were half way t[F]o Hardinsburg[Em][C]
And you were half way t[F]o hell[G][Am]
When you heard t[F]he sound of the organ's bitter swell[Am][C]
Bridge:
[C]Mr. Moses, your front porc[Em]h light's on
I've co[Am]me here for your daughter and I can see that she's gone[G]
[C]You said she took a ring of mi[Em]ne to pawn
If I [Am]hurry I could catch her out on Broadwa[G]y to dawn
Instrumental/Solo:
(C, Am, G, F, G) X4
Chorus:
And you were half way [F]to Hardinsburg[Em][C]
And you were half way t[F]o hell[G][Am]
When you heard th[F]e sound of the organ's bitter swell[Am][C]
