Like The Wheel

The Tallest Man On Earth

Text File

A couple notes: "p" means pull-off, "h" means hammer-on, and "s" means slide. "||" indicates repeat the enclosed measures once. Also, this is not exact, but I believe it to be very, very close, and no one could tell the difference unless listening to this tab and the real song side by side.

There's a cloud behind the cloud to which I'm yelling I could hear you sneak around so easily And I said oh my lord why am I not strong Like the branch that keeps hangman hanging on Like the branch that will take me home
