Tab request - Weapon Of Prayer

[CCristian]

Hi to everybody,
I've a request (may be for Henrymouni); I would like to learn play this song "Weapon Of Prayer" I listened it played by Notting Hillbillies: . I know is a song of The Louvin Brothers, but I like very much the Hillbillies cover.
If Henry  of someone other of you want to tab it is very welcome  ....I'm not able :-( .
Bye

Weapon of Prayer
Notting Hillbillies

Note: They're a bit free with the melody through each verse. There are subtle differences in the melody line each time. I tried to capture those differences in the tab, but you should be able to simplify it once you get the hang of it. You are the music maker. You are the dreamer of dreams.


3  -3   -4   -5 -5    -4  -4  3       3 -4  -3  3   2   -1
In that land a--cross the sea there's a job for you and me


3      -5  -5  -5    -5    -4  3   -4 -4 -3 
Though our pre-sence there may not be fo-und


3  -3   -4 -5 -5   -5   -4    3  3   -4  -3  3     2   -1
We must st-ay stan-ding there on the bat-tle lines and pray


-4 -5   -5 -5  -5  -4  3   -3   3
We must ne-ver lay our wea-pons down


5  5    5     5  5  5 -6  5    -4 -3 3 -3 -4
We don't have to be a sol-dier in a  u-ni-form


-5 -5 -4 -4  -3   3 -4  -3
To be of ser-vice o-ver there


3     -3  -4   -5 -5    -4 -4    -3   3   -4 -3    3    2  -1
While the boys so brave-ly stand with the wea-pons made by hand


-4  -5 -5    -4  -4  3   3   3   -3 3
Let us trust and use the wea-pon of prayer


3  -3 -4   -5    -5    -4 -4  3    3   -4   -3    3     2  -1
Ma-ny thou-sands miles a--way some-one shed there blood to-day


3    -5 -5    -5 -5   -4  3     -4      -4 -3
With a  heart so true and brave they're g--one


3  -3 -4  -5     -5    -5  -4   3   3  -4   -3  3   2   -1
To a  war that's yours and mine let us join the bat-tle line


-4  -5 -5  -5  -5   -4   3    -3  3
With a wea-pon that will save our home
