THE TALLEST MAN ON EARTH - LITTLE BROTHER Song: Little Brother Artist: The Tallest Man On Earth Album: There's No Leaving Now [2012] Tab by eirikhv ----------------------------------------------------------- TUNING: E-A-D-G-B-d (same as 'Love Is All') CAPO: 3th fret NOTE: Album version of the song. Entire song is finger pickings! I couldn't print the every part in chords, since there are some small... uhm... "variations" (nearly hammer-ons and pull-offs) certain places... I have marked repeating chords, where no extra stuff happens, with stars (***), but they are (as mentioned) finger pickings as well. Relatively easy song to play! Enjoy! :) ----------------------------------------------------------- INTRO: d|-------12--------------12--------------12------------| B|----------12--------------12--------------12---------|

story for every wrong Well, I won't be around in the morning Can only pray there's no harm in me moving on to my trials and your unknown Now there's a legion of wolves in the forest And what might have been lost, it is there, I know With the crazy old names, loving owners I feel useless when I have to face alone All your trials and my unknown CHORUS: And if you could just walk on by with signs just flying around And if this storm was just the motion of your kid just trying out if he could only lose these miles Now there's a terrible light on the shading Where you threw your insanities on a wall Well, I can see where the dog hits the summer I said "I believe you", forever, but you said "don't" It's a trial for all that grows CHORUS Why are you drinking again, little brother when your rambling's the hard part of loving you You say the creek and fogs wanna drown you But there are deeper of wells where we're going to There's no drought in this unknown CHORUS And with your memories lost on a hillside and a wind takes you further and forward now And your world is a kite in the weather gently tied to your hand that is pointing out There's a sky in this unknown CHORUS
