“Hail To Whatever You Found In the Sunlight that Surrounds You”
off of the album, The Execution of All Things
CAPO 2nd fret
key of Bm
I know this isnÂ’t exactly like the recording, but itÂ’s what I came up with, and it works
to sing along to.
As I’m sure you’ve noticed, the basic riff has a baseline walk– makes it easier to
out the tempo if you keep this in mind. Also, for the G note on the sixth string (fret “1”
the E string in the tab), I use my thumb.
Have fun with this gorgeous, haunting song.
Strumming: (/) = downstroke (entire chord)
(\) = upstroke (“)
(\ /) = up-down (“)

outro:
improvise and/or strum chords. youÂ’ve a lot of time to fill, probably want to cut it off early.
