Guitar tabs

Song: Freedom Hangs Like Heaven
Artist: Iron and Wine/Sam Beam
Album: Woman King EP

I couldn't find a tab for this song online so I decided to figure it
out on my own. Here is what I came up with:

Standard tuning, capo on 1st fret

  Mary            carry your babe      bound up
tight like     lips around a whimper your
  fingers           over my face         blind
eyed Sampson     driven to the temple and
  night birds         digging till dawn      freedom
hangs like     heaven over everyone

says he'll walk on water and wander back home

Mary, carry your babe bound up tight like lips around a whimper
Your fingers over my face, blind eyed Sampson driven to the temple
And night birds digging until dawn, freedom hangs like heaven over
everyone
Ain't nobody knows what the newborn holds
But his mama says he'll walk on water and wander back home

Mary, carry your shame well past all those eyes across the avenue
Fish heads running from rain you know I'll do anything you want me to
Lamp oil lovers may say "Freedom hangs like heaven over everyone"
Ain't nobody knows what the newborn holds
But his papa's going to hide shaking gristle and shaking like bone

Mary, carry my name, hoof marks hacked up all i had to offer you
Looked all over this place, lost your portrait lately when the winter
blew
In like herod and them, freedom hangs like heaven over everyone
Anybody knows what the newborn holds
But a dollar says he'll lick that devil and do it alone


These guitar parts repeat continuously throughout the song.
Fingerpicking is pretty much mandatory on this one. There are also
two other guitar parts (one is a slide and the other sounds like a
clean electric) and a very nice banjo solo but you are on your own
for those.
