The Tragically Hip:  Fiddler's Green
tabbed by: Chris

Well, this is my first tab, so hopefully it’s not too bad. This song seems as if it
might be in a different tuning but I’m not sure as to which tuning.  Having someone
play just strummed chords behind the picking parts would sound good. Enjoy. P.S. the
harmonics at the end of the bridge was a guessing game. The different tuning would
probably make it easier.  Listen to song for timing.

Verse 2: Same form
His tiny knotted heart,   well I guess it never worked too good
the timber tore apart,  and the water gorged the wood
you can hear her whispered prayer, for men at masts that always lean
the same wind that moves her hair, moves her boy through Fiddler's Green

Verse 3:
He doesn't know a soul, and there's nowhere that he's really been
But he won't travel long alone, no not in Fiddler's Green
Balloons all filled with rain, as children's eyes turn sleepy mean
As Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain, for a boy in Fiddler's Green
