Don't Carry It All The Decemberists
This is my first tab, but I'm pretty sure it's correct.
The song hasn't officially been released yet, but there's no reason you shouldn't be
able to play it!
Intro: G Em D
Verse 1:
[G]Here we come to a turning of the season[Em] [D]
[G]Witness to the arc towards the sun[Em] [D]
[G]A neighbors' blessed burden within reason[Em] [D]
[G]Becomes a burden born of all and one
And [Em]nobody, [D]nobody [C]knows
Chorus:
[C]Let the yoke fall from our [G]shoulders
[C]Don't carry it all, don't carry it[Em] all
[C]We are all our hands and [G]holders
Beneath this[Bm] bold and brilliant [C]sun
And this I swear to all
Break (same as intro)
Verse 2 (repeat verse 1 pattern):
Monument to build beneath the arbors
Upon a glint that towers toward the trees
Let every vessel pitching hard to starboard
Lay its head on summer's freckled knees
And nobody, nobody knows
Chorus:
Let the yoke fall from our shoulders
Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
We are all our hands and holders
Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
This I swear to all
(Return to intro pattern)
And this I swear to all
Break (same as intro)
Verse 3 (single strums, or fast finger picking in place of mandolin):
[Bm]Bare a wreath of trillium and [C]ivy
[Bm]Laid upon the body of a[Em] boy
[Bm]Lazy will the love come from its [C]hiding
[Am]Return this quiet searcher to the [D]soil
Verse 4 (verse 1 pattern):
So raise a glass to turnings of the season
Watch it as it arcs towards the sun
And you must bear your neighbor's burden within reason
And your labors will be borne when all is done
And nobody, nobody knows
Chorus:
Let the yoke fall from our shoulders
Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
We are all our hands and holders
Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
And this I swear to all
(Return to intro pattern)
And this I swear to all
And this I swear to all
And this I swear to all
To all, to all, to all
Should be good to go, let me know if there are any inconsistencies, or if something
isn't laid out well enough!
