Artist: The Decemberists Song: June Hymn Album: The King Is Dead Tabbed by: Don Tago (modified by bensully) Email: [email protected] Standard Tuning: [Capo II] Chords used: EADGBe Am: 002210 C: 032010 C/B: 020010 D*: 200232 Em: 022000 G: 320033 G/Am:320010 G/C: 332010 Thumbing the baseline is important throughout the whole song. If you listen to the recording, the chord changes move straight with the guitar baseline and thats how I judged some of the chord changes I made. In the verse, the low E descends on the first line and the A descends on the second line, then goes back up to reset for the third line, which goes down all the way from the A to the E. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro: G Verse 1: G D* Em G D* Em Here's the hymn to welcome in the day, heralding a summer's early swayAnd all the bulbs all coming Cin C/Bto begin Am C/B C C/B Am G/Am D* The thrushes bleating battle with the wrens disrupts my reverie againVerse 2: [Use verse 1 chords] Pegging clothing on the line Training jasmine how to vine up the arbor to your door, and more You're standing on the landing with the war you shouldered all the night before Chorus 1: C D* G C And once upon it, the yellow bonnets, garland all the lawn Am D* G C And you were waking and day was breaking, a panoply of songDAnd summer comes to C/GSpringville GHillVerse 3: [use verse 1 chords] A barony of ivy in the trees, expanding out its empire by degrees And all the branches burst to bloom, in the boom Heaven sent this cardinal maroon to decorate our living room Chorus 2: [use chorus 1 chords] Once upon it, yellow bonnets, garland all along You were waking, day was breaking, a panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill Bridge: C D* Em C And years from now when this old light isn't ambling anymore Am D/F# G D* Em Will I bring myself to writ-e-ite-e-ite-ite-e-ite C D* G I give my best to Springville Hill Interlude: [G - Em - G - Em], then [C - C/B - Am - G/Am], then [C - C/B - Am - G/Am - D/F#] Chorus 3: [use chorus 1 chords] Once upon it, yellow bonnets, garland all along You were waking, day was breaking, a panoply of song And summer comes to Springville Hill
