The Oracles On the Delphi Express- The Dear Hunter
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Tyler Gjersee

Tuning: Standard

So this song is mostly banjo and piano hits, which makes the chords weird. I
suggest playing power chords except for the Am and the chorus. If you have
any corrections or comments then please post them

Am F E D#
Stick with us, throw your morals out the door

E D C B Am
You aren't in the land of the river and the lake no more

Am F E D#
Makeshift schemes, we've got plenty here for you

E D C B Am
Lock away your dreams and throw away the key

Chorus:
F Am (Riff 2)
You've been stuck in the middle of patience and animosity

F E (Riff 1)
With a lust for solidity, and a cryptic history your luck's running thin


Repeat chords from here:


Crimson hands, brandish words which masquerade
If you flee from grace your souls can not be saved
Big steam ships, exits illustrate the flood
Don't be ashamed of your unlawful flaw

E D C B Am
When the bombs go off you'll know right where you are

You've been stuck in the middle of patience and animosity
With a lust for solidity, and a cryptic history your lucks running thin

Cool Bridge Part:

The solo: Turn up the distortion and just play really fast on the Am scale

F Am (Riff 3)
You've been stuck in the middle of patience and animosity

(Kind of hard to hear)

F E
With a lust for solidity, and a cryptic history your luck's running thin


I don�t have the full outro but it�s basically Church and the Dime so I�d
rather just tab out that song rather than figure out the end right now.
