All The Trees Of The Field Will Clap Their Hands Tab

Because the original is played on banjo, lower the high e string to d. I also recommend
dropping the low E string to D as well, since it allows you to strum full chords later on
in the song if you wish.
 
I also highly recommend fingerpicking the rhythm but you can use a pick if you're more
comfortable with it.
 
The notes plucked barely translate to full chords, but for those who would like them
I'll try my best to identify the best chord to fit.
 
 
   D5                Em7               F6                Em7
d|---------0-------|---------0-------|---------0-------|---------0-------|
B|---------0h3---3-|---------0h1---0-|---------0h1---1-|---------0h1---3-|
G|-----2-------0---|-----0-------0---|-----2-------0---|-----0-------0---|
D|-0---------------|-2---------------|-3---------------|-2---------------|
A|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
D|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
 
(This pattern basically repeats the entire song, starting on the D5 at the beginning of
each phrase. It should be very straightforward but I've labeled where the chord changes
are approximately in each line if you're off on the changes.)
 
 
Intro:
 
D5  Em7  F6  Em7 x2
 
Verse 1:
 
D5     Em7    F6        Em7        D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   If I am alive this time next year
D5        Em7       F6       Em7        D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   Will I have arrived in time to share?
D5     Em7   F6       Em7        D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   Mine is about as good this far
D5    Em7        F6       Em7      D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   I'm still applied to what you are
 
Chorus 1:
 
     D5    Em7     F6       Em7       D5 Em7 F6 Em7
And I am joining all my thoughts to you
     D5      Em7    F6     Em7     D5 Em7 F6 Em7
And I'm preparing every part for you
 
(It really hardly matters but for whatever reason at this point Suf changes it up ever
so slightly and starts playing the last note of the 4-bar pattern as an open B string
rather than fretting it on 3.)
 
D5  Em7  F6  Em7 x2
 
Verse 2:
 
D5     Em7            F6       Em7     D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   I heard from the trees a great parade
D5           Em7           F6     Em7       D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   And I heard from the hills a band was made
D5       Em7     F6    Em7       D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   Will I be invited to the sound?
D5       Em7     F6      Em7         D5 Em7 F6 Em7
   Will I be a part of what you've made?
 
Chorus 2:
 
     D5      Em7   F6        Em7     D5 Em7 F6 Em7
And I am throwing all my thoughts away
     D5      Em7    F6     Em7       D5 Em7 F6 Em7
And I'm destroying every bet I've made
     D5     Em7    F6        Em7      D5 Em7 F6 Em7
And I am joining all my thoughts to you
     D5      Em7   F6      Em7     D5 Em7 F6 Em7
And I'm preparing every part for you
 
Outro:
 
      D5 Em7 F6 Em7 (play progression x5 till end)
For you
 
(I like to make the texture a bit thicker here by strumming full chords while
incorporating the banjo riff as well, more or less like this:
 
   D5               Em7                F6               Em7
d|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|
B|-3---3-3-0h3-3-3-|-3---3-3-0h1-1-0-|-0---0-0-0h1-1-1-|-1---1-1-0h1-1-3-|
G|-2---2-2-2---0-0-|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|-2---2-2-2---0-0-|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|
D|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|-2---2-2-2---2-0-|-3---3-3-3---3-0-|-2---2-2-2---2-0-|
A|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|-x---x-x-x---x-0-|-x---x-x-x---x-0-|-x---x-x-x---x-0-|
D|-0---0-0-0---0-0-|-2---2-2-2---2-0-|-3---3-3-3---3-0-|-2---2-2-2---2-0-|
 
Not necessary at all, but figured I'd include it in case others wanna try it.)
