Faded From the Winter
Iron and Wine


This is the tab for the main guitar part of Faded from Winter.
I learned this based upon a live recording.  It is a deceptively easy piece to play.
Listening to the song, it sounds like it would be harder, but this is it.  Easy peasy, enjoy.

Spoken words like moonlight
You're the voice that I like.

Needlework and seedlings
In the way you're walking
To me from the Timbers
Faded from the winter

Intro to end... occasionally adding that high B throughout the pattern.
