Heirloom
All Delighted People -- 2010
 
Intro - D  G  D  G (2x)
 
Verse 1
D                           G
When your heirloom's wilted brown 
D                       G
When the devils pushing down 
D                       G
When your morning has a sound 
D                   G
And you hesitate to laugh 
D                      Em7
How quickly will your joy pass? 
D                      Em7
How quickly will your joy pass? 
 
Chorus
Am                         Em
And when you walk inside I feel the door 
G                           D
I'll never let it push your arms no more 
Am                               Em
And when your legs give out just lie right down 
G                             D
And I will kiss you till your breath is found 
Am                         Em
And when you walk inside I feel the door 
G                           D
I'll never let it push your arms no more 
 
Interlude - Same as Intro
 
Verse 2
D                         G
So do you think I came to fight? 
D                         G
And do I always think I'm right? 
D                       Em7
Oh no, I never meant to be, a pest to anyone this time! 
D                      Em7
Oh no, I only meant to be, a friend to everyone this time!

Thanks for the tab! :) it also works well in Drop d tuning, then you get a rich and warm sound on the D chords.
