                             Troubles Will Be Gone - The Tallest Man on Earth
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Tabbed by: lord RAVE
 
 
Tuning: Open G (DGDGBd)
Capo 8th, or wherever suits your voice, I ain't the boss of you.
 
This song is easier than it looks. Like many of The Tallest Man on Earth's songs its four chords
split into 3 voices - bass, treble and a middle voice.
 
Practice the alternating bass first then start adding in the other voices as you see fit.
Establish a solid right hand plucking pattern. He usually uses several per song, as you get faster you'll
notice you aren't thinking about the bass and treble parts, you're thinking about the pattern.
 
Remember this is a folk song. TMOE rarely plays it the same way twice, so why should you? Focus on
capturing the feel, not replicating it note for note.

(D)            Em9                           G          D         Em9
But now the ghost is in my jacket and my stairs were built in anger
C                                         D
Winding forcefully but end up where I stand
                 Em9                                G      D      Em9
But there are no rocks or salt and nails, I low my cannons not to kill you
       C                                   D
Simply lost the words to tell you I'm afraid
C                                         D7
And there's a sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
C                                         D7
Well the sign will tell you, "Turn if there's a one"
           Em9                             G           D          Em9
Still the day is never done, but there's a light on where you're sleeping
       C                        D7
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
 
Oh darling, when it's you I see in headlights, driving down the golden highway
And salvation in the beauty of some brace
And the deer is gone without me to the valley of surrender
There is still another world along it's tracks
 
But there's that sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
Well the sign will say, "There's still a higher one"
And now the day is slowly setting, and the lights on where you're sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
