Tuning: Standard

This is 100% correct as far as the key and root notes. However, as a bass player you can 
obviously embellish and add your own style.

You’re playing the root notes throughout entire song. Here’s a tabbed view.

G|---------------------------|
D|---------------------------|
A|--3--------6-----3---------|
E|-----4--6-----1-----1--3---|

I like to include the minor 7th at the beginning of the measure. I also double up on 
some notes, but the point is that as long as you’re hitting the root notes – you can make 
this song your own.


    C        G#             A#           D#
The young man stands on the edge of his porch
    F        C            F         G
The days were short and the father was gone
          C            G#        A#             D#
There was no one in the town and no one in the field
     F           C             F           G
This dusty barren land had given all it could yield


Bass comes in at the end of Vs 1 (0:33)

          C            G#           A#         D#
I've been kicked off my land at the age of sixteen
    F          C               F               G
And I have no idea where else my heart could have been
  C            G#            A#            D#
I placed all my trust at the foot of this hill
     F      C               F       G
And now I am sure my heart can never be still
   C           G#              A#         D#
So collect your courage and collect your horse
     F            C             F        G
And pray you never feel this same kind of remorse

(Bass is quiet during the first chorus)

Chorus 1
C      G#         A#        D#
Seal my heart and brake my pride
     F         C            F         G
I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
 C      G#         A#        D#
Align my heart, my body, my mind
   F             C       F    G
To face what I've done and do my time
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mumford_and_sons/dust_bowl_dance_crd.html ]
      C        G#            A#          D#
Well you are my accuser, now look in my face
F             C            F        G
Your opression reeks of your greed and disgrace
   C      G#         A#         D#
So one man has and another has not
F          C           F          G
How can you love what it is you have got
         C          G#             A#            D#
When you took it all from the weak hands of the poor?
F        C                   F         G
Liars and thieves you know not what is in store

      C          G#           A#            D#
There will come a time I will look in your eye
    F               C           F         G
You will pray to the God that you always denied
    C          G#             A#      D#
The I'll go out back and I'll get my gun
               F      C               F   G
I'll say, "You haven't met me, I am the only son"

C      G#         A#        D#
Seal my heart and brake my pride
     F         C            F         G
I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
 C      G#         A#        D#
Align my heart, my body, my mind
   F             C       F    G
To face what I've done and do my time

(Instrumental Bridge)
It is simply double time what you have been playing.

I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide

Align my heart, my body, my mind
   F             C       F    G

     C       G#        A#          D#
Well yes sir, yes sir, yes it was me
  F             C            F             G
I know what I've done, cause I know what I've seen
C         G#          A#      D#
I went out back and I got my gun
             F      C               F   G
I said, "You haven't met me, I am the only son"
