Midwestern Dirt Tabs & Lyrics by Dear and the Headlights
Midwestern Dirt
guitar tabs lyrics
Tune half step down.
There is a LOT of guitar overlap in this song but this is what I heard out of it.
Before you start, you should know that almost all of this song contains these two chords
over and over again:
Eb-------------------------2------------|
Bb---3--0---------------0--x--3---------|
Gb---0--0---------------0--0--0---------|
Db---0--0---------------0--0--0---------|
Ab---2--2------and------2--2--2---------|
Eb---3--3-------------------------------|
So you play that part (emphasizing the higher strings more) basically along with the
song but theres lots of other fun parts to play. So heres the whole song:
Intro:
---0~0--0---------------2--------------------|
---5/7--3---0-3-0-----0-x-3----0~0-----0-----|
---0~0--0---0-0-0-----0-0-0----4\2---0-0-----|
------------0-0-0-----0-0-0----0~0---4/5-----|
------------2-2-2-----2-2-2------------------|
------------3-3-3----------------------------| repeat
Sinking in deeper...
---------0---------------------------------------------|
----------------------3------------0-1---------0-1-----|
-------2---2--------0---0--------0-----2-----0-----2---|
-----2-------2----0-------0----------------------------|
---3------------2------------0-3---------0-3-----------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
---------7-------|---------5---------|
-----8--------8--|-----7-------7-----|
-------7---7-----|-------7---7-------|
---5-------------|-------------------|
-----------------|---5---------------|
-----------------|-------------------|
---------------14--12---------------------------|
--------12-------------15----12-13-10-12b13b12--|
--12-14-----12---12--12---12--------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
And my next words could be my last...
1st guitar:
---15--15--15--15------10--10--10--10-----------|
---15--15--15--15------10--10--10--10-----------|
---16--16--16--16------11--11--11--11-----------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
2nd guitar:
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
---------12-16-------16-------16----------------|
---12-14-------14-12----14-12----14-12----------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------15-------15-------15----------------|
---11-12-14----14-12----14-12----14-12----------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
repeats until the ending below:
------------------------------------------------|
------------15----------------------------------|
---11-12-14----14-12-------------11-12----------|
------------------------------12----------------|
----------------------9-10-12-------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
Now just keep repeating those parts but sometimes the guitar plays:
------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------3----------------------|
------4b---------or---4b------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------|
After repeating the main solo part again, play this:
And you stay above me forever.
---------12------------10----------7---8p7-----10p7----|
---12-12----12\\\10-10----10\\\8-8---8-----8-8------8--|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
Then it repeats but changes a little but you can figure that out yourself.
Thats it! Enjoy
