               Words in the Fire - Patrick Watson

Tabbed by: Chiel1989

I believe this is accurate (it sounds right to me anyway) but if you have any corrections, feel free
to place them in th comment section)
I have tried to fit in the lyrics as best as I could but some part have to many words to fit them in.
When the tab says 4x above a measure, it means only play that measure 4x. 2x or 3x at the end means play
the whole section the 2 or 3 times)


Tuning: EADGBd (tune high E-string one full step down)
Measure: 6/8 (I think)

After this you play the whole verse once more. But the lyrics are:

We were down at sandy beach
Old man talking a young man's words
Tell me where you would like to be
Tonight don't be afraid to dream
Lean on the fire for a while
'Cause in the morning it'll all be ashes on the ground


After that it is the chorus again. And that's the whole song.
