Song: "Communion Cups & Someone's Coat"
Artist: Iron & Wine
Album: Passing Afternoon EP

Tuning (low to high): EGDGBD (tune the A string and the high E string down one full step each)

Capo 4th fret

h= hammer on
p= pull off

(4)= let this note resonate, but don't pluck it

All the tabs of this song on this site have you playing the same notes, but I think this 
the easiest way to play them.

Lyrics:
Talk of yesterday and she will show her
Brothers photographed in callous clothes
Say tomorrow and she'll say "Come find me
On a beach and there will be no moon."

But say today
She may kiss your face
And maybe forget

Talk of yesterday like bargain shoe strings
She will kick the car and find her friends
Say tomorrow and then she'll describe some
Old communion cups and someone's coat

But say today
She will look your way
And lead you home
