A Robin Pecknold rendition of Judee Sill's work.
Pretty straight-forward. All of the verses are played pretty much exactly
the same way and the intro and solo are very similar.
Comment or message any ideas or corrections. Please rate my tab. If you've got
problems with the tab, I'd encourage you to contact me with those problems so I
can fix the tab or provide advice for playing. Don't just give me a poor rating
and not give me any feedback. The idea is for us all to work together to create
a perfect finished product. This tab just represents the best I can do. It's
definitely up for peer review.
Key:
where # represents a fret number
#h# - hammer
#p# - pull
/ \ - slides, up and down respectively.
(#) - optional note. just shows timing, not actually played.

Verse 3: (Played the same way)
Phony prophits stole the only light I knew
And the darkness softly screamed
Holy visions disappear from my view
but the angels come back and laugh in my dreams
I wonder what it means
