Mount Moriah -- "Reckoning" From the self-titled record http://www.mountmoriahband.com/ Tabs by Tim Prizer (tim_prizer@yahoo.com) Heather McEntire plays this in bar-chord form, as such: A: 5-7-7-6-5-5 E: 12-14-14-13-12-12 D: 10-12-12-11-10-10 But it also works nicely in traditional-chord form, and I find that it is better to play it this way if you're playing it with no lead guitar backup because you can provide some texture to the D at the end of each line by pulling off and hammering on the little e-string (or including a couple of Dsus2 chords with it). This, of course, looks like so: A: x-0-2-2-2-0 E: 0-2-2-1-0-0 D: x-x-0-2-3-2 Dsus2: x-x-0-2-3-0 -------- INTRO (same as verses): [A] [E] [D] [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] x 3; then [A] [E] [A] [A] Mama [E] rest your [D] mind [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] I found a lover she's [E] gentle and [D] kind [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] Finally [E] it's the [D] lasting kind [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] So mama [E] rest your [A] mind [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/mount-moriah/303495.html ] [A] Mama [E] calm your [D] nerves [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] It could be [E] so much [D] worse [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] And if this [E] love is the [D] Devil's curse [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] I don't [E] want your [A] cure [CHORUS] [A] If your old book [E] says it's [D] true [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] Back of your [E] knees locked to the [D] seat of the [Dsus2] pew [D] [Dsus2] [A] And if it's this [E] painful and [D] pure [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] I will [E] reck[D]on [A] you [A] All you [E] ask for is fami[D]ly [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] I've had your [E] fists your love your [D] suffering [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] All these [E] years of [D] coming [Dsus2] clean [D] [Dsus2] [A] But never [E] heard or [A] seen [CHORUS] Guitar break (same as verse/intro) [A] [E] [D] [Dsus2] [A] [E] [D] [Dsus2] [A] [E] [D] [Dsus2] [A] [E] [A] [A] Mama [E] dry your [D] eyes [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A]Forget a[E]bout the [D]fire [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2] [A] Look how my [E] face [D] smiles and [Dsus2] shines [D] [Dsus2] [A] Can you learn to [E] know your [A] child [CHORUS] [A] I will [E] reck[D]on [A] you [A] I will [E] reck[D]on [A] you |
