SONG: Half Acre
BAND: Hem
ALBUM: Rabbit Songs - 2005 (Track 3)
-------------------------------
Standard Tuning
When I listen to closely to the only other version of this tab I could find, it sounds
but not spot-on in some major spots. I think these chords work better. And I'm not sure
the Dm chord is ever even used.
An effortlessly perfect song. The kind you can even enjoy with your mum.
Am F C Am F C
I am holding half an acre
Am F C Am F C
Torn fromthemap of Michigan
Am F C Am F C
And folded in this scrap of paper
Bb F C
Is the land I grew in
Am F C Am F C
Think of every town you've lived in
Am F C Am F C
Every room you lay your head
Am F C Am F C
And what is it that you remember
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hem/half_acre_crd_ver_2.html ]
Bb F C Am
Do you carry every sadness with you
Bb F C Am
Every hour your heart was broken
Bb F C Am
Every night the fear and darkness
Bb F
Lay down with you
Am F C Am F C
A man is walking on the highway
Am F C Am F C
A woman stares out at the sea
Am F C Am F C
And light is only now just breaking
Bb F C Am
So we carry every sadness with us
Bb F C Am
Every hour our hearts were broken
Bb F C Am
Every night the fear and darkness
Bb F
Lay down with us
Am F C Am F C
But I am holding half an acre
Am F C Am F C
Torn fromthemap of Michigan
Am F C Am F C
And folded in this scrap of paper
Bb F C Am
That can crack the darkest sky wide open
Bb F C Am
Every burden taken from me
Bb F C Am
Every night my heart unfolding
Bb F [ends on C]
My home
