I tabbed this from a live recording (link at the bottom of the page) -- Kevin changes it every so often and adds little licks here and there, but this tab is an accurate for sure. Enjoy :) -Courtney CHORDS: C#maj7 D#m Fm F#maj A#m G#maj F#maj C#maj Fm* A#m* D#maj |--4-----6---8-----9-----6----4-----2-----4----1---1-----6---| |--6-----7---9-----11----6----4-----2-----6----1---2-----8---| |--5-----8---10----11----6----5-----3-----6----1---3-----8---| |--6-----8---10----11----8----6-----4-----6----3---3-----8---| |--4-----6---8-----9-----8----6-----4-----4----3---1-----6---| |--4-----6---8-----9-----6----4-----2-----4----1---1-----6---| (note: Kevin uses a lot of bar chords that can be simplified; for the most part, any with an asterisk [*] after it is the simplified version, when he chooses to specifically it.) SHORTHAND: C#maj7: 446564 D#m: 668876 Fm: 8 8 10 10 9 8 F#maj: 9 9 11 11 11 9 A#m: 688666 G#maj: 466544 F#maj*: 244322 C#maj: 446664 Fm*: 133111 A#m*: 113321 D#maj: 668886 [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/k/kevin-devine/192733.html ] C#maj7 D#m A quieter boat, dog's dying day Fm F#maj A bone in a bowl, a watery grave D#m C#maj7 A#m See, I am a sailor, but I'm not so great D#m G#maj F#maj* C#maj I keep fishin' for roadkill, passin' out on the waves (repeat chords above) A shimmering sea, stretched end to end A shivering bowl, a flickering friend See, that's Mr. Murphy, my leathery brave He's whimpering "Taps" now, for his plank-walk parade Fm* A#m C#maj G#maj D#maj I've never been a joiner, no, I've quit every team I've been on F#maj* A#m* F#maj* A#m* Now I'm crying in my coffee, that's not sea salt in my eyes F#maj* A#m* F#maj* G#maj C#maj Cause me and Murphy, we have been through it, and I hate watching him die (whistling) (repeat the pattern in the verse) So I wait for my wisdom, like I wait for my wife Like I wait for a story, helps me wait out the night Like when I was an archer, but I couldn't shoot straight I broke all of ma's windows, I poked holes through her drapes And I laugh to myself, but I can't tell you why The hung-over sun sneaks back in the sky But Murphy went peaceful, he went decent and right At least better than I will, when it's my turn to die And I wear his collar on my wrist and I bury him down at the beach No crying, no coffin, just a body in a hole No praying, no singing, no saving any souls The only thing I'm saving, yeah Is a bone... inside... a bowl (Note: at the end of the outro, Kevin plays F#maj to F#m before ending on C#maj.)
