Standard Tuning, No Capo
My first Tab ever here guys, and I'm kinda wined up, so feel free to correct as you will.
Vance plays F, F, Am, G throughout the entire song. Obviously there's picking involved
but I'm too pissed to make a decent attempt at tabbing it out. It's a basic strum
pattern, with a hammer on the 4th (G) string 2nd fret, but you'll need someone a bit
more focused than me to help tab it out properly. It's a beautiful song from an amazing
artist, so
hopefully someone puts in the effort.
Hopefully at least the lyrics are close.
Keep them coming Vance, you're an inspiration.
verse 1-
Oh, if you're losing sleep,
h if you're losing sleep, scared of shadows
I see it's just a chair,
See you're clothes hang there
Don't go losing sleep scared of shadows.
Chorus -
Oh don't feel bad
I never have
Since I got you
My Emmylou
verse 2-
You wear your socks to bed
You wear your socks to bed, that's what I do
Oh come on sleepyhead, get yourself to bed,
Don't go losing all the night time
Chorus x1
