  • As an avid Iron and Wine listener and finger picker, I have found the holy grail! This
    song is one that I know a ton of you have wanted to play. This is probably the most
    tab out there. I don't know what you have read or seen in the past, but this is probably
  • most accurate. I rated this song advanced because it requires much finger picking skill
    accuracy, plus a natural groove and rhythm. It's also VERY difficult to sing over.
     
  • And for the record, if there are ever notes in parentheses, they are optional; I think
    makes it a little easier to flow from one part to the next without sounding wrong.
     
  • Sam Beam does 4 different finger picking parts:
     
     
  • The Pickup (First 3 Intervals)
    Fingering:
     
  •  
    e---------|
    B--/3-1-0-| Index, Middle, or Ring Finger [I think Middle is Easiest]
  • G---0-----|
    D--/4-2-0-| Thumb
    A---------|
  • E---------|
    (when doing this little riff, the Open G isn't necessary)
     
  • and then the 3 separate versions of the same thing:
     
    "Cmaj Shape"
  • Chord: Cmaj (pinky on 3rd fret of e String)
    Fingering:
    T I T M R
  • e------------3------------|
    B--------0h1----/3-1-0----|
    G----0-----------0--------|
  • D------2--------/4-2-0----|
    A--3----------------------|
    E-------------------------|
  •  
    "Em Shape"
    Chord: Em
  •  
    Fingering:
    *RM= Ring or Middle Finger
  •  
    T T *RM T
    e-----------0----------------|
  • B------------------/3-1-0----|
    G-------------------0--------|
    D--(2)--2------2---/4-2-0----|
  • A--(2)-----------------------|
    E---0------------------------|
     
  • "Alternate Cmaj Shape"
    (This one is the hardest)
    Fingers:
  • T I R M
    e--------3p0----------------|
    B-------------1---/3-1-0----|
  • G-----0------------0--------|
    D------------(2)---/4-2-0---|
    A--3------------------------|
  • E---------------------------|
     
    Okay, now this is the most difficult part of all---playing them in order.
  •  
    You start out with the intro, and then play the parts in this order:
     
  • (Pickup)...then
    1-2-1-2-|
    3-2-1-2-|
  • 1-2-3-2-|
    1-2-1-2-|
  • PLAY TOO ..
