Muddy Hymnal Iron & Wine
Capo 1st Fret
f[C]ound your name across the chapel door [D]
[G]carved in cursive with a table fork [C]
[G]muddy hymnals
and some bootmarks [C]where you'd been [D]
[C]the shaking preacher told the captain's man [D]
[G]the righteous suffer in a fallen land [C]
[G]and pulled the shade
to keep the crowd from[D] peeking in [G]
[C]we found your children by the tavern door [D]
[G]with wooden buttons and an apple core [C]
[G]playing house
[C]and telling everyone you'd drowned [D]
[C]the begging choir told the captain's man [D]
[G]we all assume the worst the best we can [C]
[G]and for a round or two
[D]they'd gladly track you down [G]
[C]we found you sleeping by your lover's stone [D]
[G]a ream of paper and a telephone [C]
[G]a broken bow
[C]across a long lost violin [D]
[C]your lover's angel told the captain's man [D]
[G]it never ends the way we had it planned [C]
[G]and kissed her palm
[D]and placed it on your dreaming head[G]
