[Verse 1]
C                 G                Am
Whiskey won't you come and take my troubles
      F               C           G
Cause I can't seem to do it on my own
       F                C           Am
In the morning there is hours and infinity
    F                 G               C      G
The starlit evening's come to take me home
 
[Verse 2]
C                 G           Am
I ain't got a dime in my pocket
      F                   C   G
and I just stepped on my last cigarette
       F             C                     Am
But there's a bar downtown that'll give me credit
    F               G           C      G
A home away from home, away I went

Tomorrow there's a train to Carolina
      F              C           G
Tomorrow that's where I'm gonna go
       F             C           Am
To feel the warm sunshine on my shoulder
    F                 G           C      G
and live my days a free and easy soul

[Verse 4]
C                 G                Am
My home is with the hills and trees around me
      F               C              G
My ceiling holds the moon and stars above
       F              C           Am
So I'll never be a lone man a' walking
    F                 G          C      G
I'll never live one day without love
 
[Verse 5]
   C                 G                Am
So whiskey won't you come and take my troubles
      F               C           G
Cause I can't seem to do it on my own
       F                C         Am
In the morning there is hours and infinity
    F                 G                Am
The starlit evening's come to take me home
    F                 G               C
The starlit evening's come to take me home

I would like to see some mandolin tabs for this. As well as most Trampled By Turtles songs.

First off awesome song and good tab. At the end of each verse I'm pretty sure they drop into a Gm (instead of the G C G). Then coming into the next verse they walk it up like so (from the Gm) [tab] e|-----------------0--0------ b|-----------------1--1------ g|----------------0--------0- d|---------------2-----0h2--- a|------0---2---3------------ e|--3------------------------ [/tab] and so on

Hey Man, First off AWESOME tab. It's not really a correction just a note I want to add: When playing this especially on a single guitar it sounds really good when you hammer on one of the notes in each chord at the start of the fouth bar of each line. I've been playing this and I think it adds to your tab nicely: [tab] b 0-----3-----0-----0 B 1-----3-----1-----1 G 2-----0-----2-----0 D 0h2---0-----0h2---0h2 A 0-----0h2---0-----3 E 0-----3-----0-----0[/tab]
