THAT WESTERN SKYLINE - Dawes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Macheeoo
E-mail: macheeoo@yahoo.com
Tuning: Standard CAPO I
Okay, so I'm going to post the chords to what I've figured out BUT not post
a picking pattern, as I'm not terribly good at picking/bass notes. But
nevertheless this sounds pretty authentic to some of the live, acoustic
versions they have done. Here are the chords relative to capo --
(CAPO I)
A B9 Dsus2 F#m C#m E E7 D#dim (I think this is the correct name)
e|--0---x---0------2----4----0--0---x----|
B|--2---2---3------2----5----0--3---4----|
G|--2---2---2------2----6----1--1---2----|
D|--2---1---0------4----6----2--0---1----|
A|--0---2---x------4----4----2--2---x----|
E|--x---x---x------2----x----0--0---x----|
Intro: Dsus2 F#m A Dsus2 D#dim
A
B9 Dsus2 A
Oh Lou, I'd like to let you know that I do not feel welcome
A B9
All the birds, the trees, the falling snow
Dsus2 A
No, they were not made for me
A B9 Dsus2 A
And though this is where her heart resides, we met in California
A B9
She saw a city's promise reaching through my eyes,
Dsus2 A
And she turned her self away
Dsus2 A
Well how I curse that western skyline
Dsus2 A
And yet I thanked it for my start
Dsus2 F#m A Dsus2
Oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true
D#dim A
No, they only came apart
A B9
So I followed her here to Birmingham,
Dsus2 A
where the soil is so much richer
A B9
And though my aching pride might guide my hand,
Dsus2 A
she did not ask for me to come
A B9
So I wait for her all through the day,
Dsus2 A
as if I wait for her surrender
A B9
And every time I get her to look my way,
Dsus2 A
she says I'm not where I belong
Dsus2 A
But I watch her father preach on Sundays
Dsus2 A
I know the hymnals all by heart
Dsus2 F#m A Dsus2
But oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true
D#dim A
No, they only came apart
C#m A E A Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
C#m A E A E
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
C#m A E A Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
C#m A E A E E7
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
A B9
All the snow fall this time of year,
Dsus2 A
it's not what Birmingham is used to
A B9
I get the feeling that I brought it here,
Dsus2 A
and now I'm taking it away
Dsus2 A
But let's share one more drink together,
Dsus2 A
before I go reload my car
Dsus2 F#m A Dsus2
And oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true
D#dim A
No they only came apart
C#m A E A Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh (Take me home)
C#m A E A E
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
C#m A E A Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
C#m A E A E
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
(End on E)
DONE!!!
Finally, someone did a worthy job of tabbing this. Well done.

I have to say, I know this isn't how Taylor Goldsmith plays it (he hardly ever uses a capo) but I was so sure I had the chords correct that I had to post it. Thanks!
