The Barr Brothers - Song That I Heard Capo 6 drop D tuning(eBGDAD) sometimes play without low string sometimes w/ at 5th fret [to be finger-picked] [Intro] D (vamp) [Verse 1] In the same reckless city where great Antonio died On the island in the river with a mountain at its side I came to scatter ashes of the bridges I’ve burned And I know the name of the song that I heard Yeah I know the name of the song I heard [Verse 2] Like a moonlight mathematician I subtracted my concerns And I multiplied my options and divided my returns Sacrificed the angel who was tugging at my shirt I was already claimed by the song that I heard Yeah already chained to the song that I heard [Verse 3] From the corner of my eye I caught the shadow of a girl But my shoes were tied together and my face was in the dirt Her gentle eyes said everything before she said a word And I knew I was changed by the song that I heard Yeah I knew right away by the song I heard [Verse 4] In the cult of desperation he stayed just behind the curve And no one here admits we’re getting more than we deserve I was born a first child she was born a third We were already named by the songs that we heard Yeah already claimed by the songs we heard [Verse 5] Did I make you out a Phoenix from the ashes of a bird? Did we build our palace and watch it as it burned? It’s kind of like a lesson that had to be unlearned [Verse 6] Like a fool maker Fall-taker Forsaker Heartbreaker Earthquaker Soul-shaker Soothsayer Moon prayer Sun slayer Yeasayer Mistaker Rattlesnaker We are already changed by the songs we heard
