One by One All Day Lyrics

I worked this out (with help from the previous version and the fantastic tab) by
listening to James Mercer play it acoustically. I'm 100% certain that this is right. The E7sus4
chord is the same as the one he used in Past and Pending, which is how I came across it.
Listen to the song for the changes in that chord, and I'll tab it for clarity. It sounds
lovely with open chords, with the obvious exception being the F#, which is easiest (and
sounds best) played at 2nd fret.
E7sus4 02020x
"Howdy, lem," my grandpa said with his eyes closed
wiping the eastbound dust from his sunburned brow
a life before doubt.
Chorus:
I smell the engine grease and mint the wind is blending
under the moan of rotting elm in the silo floor
Verse 2:
Down a hill of pine tree quills we made our way
to the bottom and the ferns where thick moss grows
beside a stream.
Chorus:
Under the rocks are snails and we can fill our pockets
and let them go one by one all day in a brand new place
Instrumental break x2
(play this variation on the verse chords twice)
Chorus:
You were no ordinary drain on her defenses
and she was no ordinary girl Oh, Inverted World
if every moment of our lives were cradled softly
in the hands of a strange and gentle child
I'd not roll my eyes
so.
E G Repeat until fade
When James Mercer played this acoustically, he repeated the E and G at the end a few
times then ended with E G A E which sounds really nice. As usual, Mercer does a lot of
Hammer ons and pull offs, which you can add optionally (sounds great on the D chord just
before the F# and on the A in the chorus)
Furthermore, The E to E7sus4 change is a quick one. The E and B chords are a bar each,
whereas the E and E7sus4 chords last half a bar each. Listen to the song if timing is an issue.
I really hope this helps somebody out there play this fantastic song :D
