Artist: Iron & Wine
Song: Winter Prayers
Album: Ghost on Ghost
Tabbed by: Blazn Blue
I made this tab because the other ones on here have a few wrong chords as well as wrong lyrics.
These lyrics are straight from the liner notes, and the chords have been taken from the
KEXP performance.

As usual with Sam Beam, he embellishes with hammer-ons and pull-offs. If you watch the
live performance, you can get a good idea of these.
Standard Tuning
Capo II
Verse 1:
Am Dm Dsus2
Well its cold, and you're bored
G E
From counting the smart cars on 94
Am Dm Dsus2
When you dream you're back home
G E
But the lakeside don't trust you to walk alone
Am Dm Dsus2
Hollow trees, talk offhand
G E
All the neckties are toasting with empty cans
Am Dm Dsus2
And you know why she's gone
G E
Like the clothes in the river, drifting on

Chorus:
Dm G
Slide down south
Am
Cause once in a while your confidence leaves you
Dm G Am E
Like smoke falls out her red mouth
Break:
Am Dm Dsus G E
(play twice with ooh's and aah's)
Verse 2:
Am Dm Dsus2
Well she left you the holes
G E
The tracks in the back yard, December snow
Am Dm Dsus2
But those sad souvenirs
G E
They end at the fence line, and disappear
Am Dm Dsus2
Why you'd follow her there?
G E
Milwaukee's a deaf ear for winter prayers
Am Dm Dsus2
There's no night, there's no day
G E
With only hope in your pocket, and hell to pay
Chorus:
Dm G
Slide down south
Am
Cause once in a while your confidence leaves you
Dm G Am E
Like smoke falls out her red mouth
Outro:
Am Dm Dsus2 G E
