Joe Pug Hymn 101 Tabbed By Sam Borchard Questions / Comments to sborchard (at) gmail.com The chords are definitely correct. The picking pattern I'm guessing at, but it sounds pretty good to me. The way I play it the repeated notes (usually on the D string) are picked with the index finger, then thumb, then index finger. The rhythm is also a bit syncopated - listen to the song and it should make sense. The song is played in drop-D tuning (DADGBE), and is sometimes capoed up 2 frets depending on the version. Enjoy!

come to know the shipwrecks where he wished I've come to wish aloud among the over-dressed crowd Come to witness now the sinking of the ship Throwing pennies from the sea top next to it VERSE And I've come to roam the forest past the village With a dozen lazy horses in my cart I've come here to get high, To do more than just get by. I've come to test the timber of my heart Oh, I've come to test the timber of my heart CHORUS And I've come to be untroubled in my seeking And I've come to see that nothing is for naught I've come to reach out blind to reach forward and behind For the more I seek the more I'm sought Yea, the more I seek the more I'm sought. INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE VERSE And I've come to meet the sheriff and his posse To offer him the broadside of my jaw I've come here to get broke Then maybe bum a smoke We'll go drinking two towns over after all Oh, we'll go drinking two towns over after all. VERSE And I've come to meet the legendary takers I've only come to ask them for a lot Oh they say I come with less than I should rightfully possess I say the more I buy the more I'm bought And the more I'm bought the less I cost CHORUS And I've come to take their servants and their surplus And I've come to take their raincoats and their speed I've come to get my fill To ransack and spill I've come to take the harvest for the seed I've come to take the harvest for the seed INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE VERSE And I've come to know the manger that you sleep in I've come to be the stranger that you keep I've come from down the road And my footsteps never slowed Before we met, I knew we'd meet Before we met, I knew we'd meet VERSE And I've come here to ignore your cries and heartaches I've come to closely listen to you sing I've come here to insist That I leave here with a kiss I've come to say exactly what I mean and I mean so many things. CHORUS And you've come to know me stubborn as a butcher and you've come to know me thankless as a guest will you recognize my face when gods awful grace strips me of my jacket and my vest and reveals all the treasure in my chest
