SONG: Half Acre
BAND: Hem
ALBUM: Rabbit Songs - 2005 (Track 3)
-------------------------------
Standard Tuning

When I listen to closely to the only other version of this tab I could find, it sounds 
but not spot-on in some major spots.  I think these chords work better.  And I'm not sure 
the Dm chord is ever even used.

An effortlessly perfect song.  The kind you can even enjoy with your mum.


Am   F       C          Am F C
I am holding half an acre
Am          F     C       Am F C
Torn fromthemap of Michigan
    Am     F       C            Am F C
And folded in this scrap of paper
        Bb     F    C
Is the land I grew in

Am       F     C                  Am F C
Think of every town you've lived in
Am    F     C              Am F C
Every room you lay your head
    Am      F       C          Am F C
And what is it that you remember
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hem/half_acre_crd_ver_2.html ]
        Bb     F     C     Am
Do you carry every sadness with you
Bb     F          C         Am
Every hour your heart was broken
Bb       F       C          Am
Every night the fear and darkness
Bb        F
Lay down with you

  Am     F       C            Am F C
A man is walking on the highway
   Am   F          C        Am F C
A woman stares out at the sea
    Am       F    C               Am F C
And light is only now just breaking

        Bb     F     C     Am
So we carry every sadness with us
Bb      F        C           Am
Every hour our hearts were broken
Bb      F         C        Am
Every night the fear and darkness
Bb        F
Lay down with us

    Am   F       C          Am F C
But I am holding half an acre
Am          F     C       Am F C
Torn fromthemap of Michigan
    Am     F       C            Am F C
And folded in this scrap of paper


           Bb         F     C        Am
That can crack the darkest sky wide open
Bb       F     C        Am
Every burden taken from me
Bb      F        C       Am
Every night my heart unfolding
Bb     F    [ends on C]
My home
