------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE KINGDOM - Bethany Dillon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: sabaideeka Email: ckasemset at Gmail This is from Bethany Dillon's acoustic version at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5skY5dCyy4 Listen to it to get the strumming patterns. I can barely play the guitar yet, but I've listened really carefully and think that this tab works. Email me with any corrections/feedback. Notes: (x) means you should mute it, but you don't absolutely have to. Good for beginners like me, especially when stretching that pinky. :P Tuning: Standard (EADGBe) INTRO (play this line 2x) and VERSE (play this line 4x) e|-(x)-----x--------|-(x)-----x---------|-(x)-----x-------|-(x)------x---(x)-| B|------------------|-------------------|-----------------|------------------| G|--9------8--------|-11------8---------|--9------8-------|--9-------8----9--| D|--9------9--------|--9------9---------|--9------9-------|--9-------9----9--| A|--7------7--------|--7------7---------|-----------------|------------------| E|------------------|-------------------|--x------x-------|--x-------x----x--| It tapped me on the shoulder today when I got home I saw everything collecting dust; it made me hope there was something more I pore over pages, desperate to find out why The cripple at your table has what I'm longing to find PRECHORUS e|------------------|-------------------|-----------------|------------------| B|------------------|-------------------|-----------------|------------------| G|--2---------------|--6----------------|--2--------------|--2---------4-----| D|--2---------------|--6----------------|--2--------------|--2---------4-----| A|------------------|--4----------------|-----------------|------------2-----| E|--2---------------|--x----------------|--2--------------|--x---------x-----| Teach me how to hum it, because I don't know the words yet CHORUS (play this line 2x) e|-(x)-----x----(x)-|-(x)-----x-----(x)-|-(x)-----x---(x)-|-(x)------x---(x)-| B|------------------|-------------------|-----------------|------------------| G|--9------8-----9--|--9------8------9--|--9------8----9--|--9-------8----9--| D|--9------9-----9--|--9------9------9--|--9------9----9--|--9-------9----9--| A|--7------7-----7--|--x------x------x--|--x------x----x--|------------------| E|------------------|--7------7------7--|--9------9----9--|--x-------x----x--| Help me see the light, I'm reaching through the fight, Yahweh, show me the ...
