Palmyra by Houndmouth
Watched some live videos to learn this. Simple song, but can add complexity with
hammering on/off through out
the song.
Update: Here's my video playing this song using this tab https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClTXg3UD4Hc
The guitarist for the band keeps his guitar 1/2 step down. SO to play with the record
you'd have to drop your
tuning. I typically play standard tuning though.
My Version: https://youtu.be/ClTXg3UD4Hc
Chords used:
C/G F* G*
E: 3 x x
A: 3 3 5
D: 2 3 5
G: 0 2 4
B: 1 1 3
e: 0 0 0
The guitarist plays many different riffs in and out of the chord changes. One
progression I play is:
C/G F* C/G
e|-3-----------------x-----------3-----|
B|-3-----------------3--3--3--3--3-----|
G|-2---------0h2p0---3--0--0--3--2-----|
D|-0--0h2-0----------2--2--2--2--0-----|
A|-1-----------------1--3--1--1--1-----|
E|-0-----------------0--0--0--0--0-----|

Oh My Palmyra

Sweeter then sugar Cane

Keeps her skin olive and tan

Tastes just like medicine

Shes got a room with a balcony

At the holiday Inn

She'll have you on up for the weekend

Fix you a Robert Roy

Oh my Palmyra

Spelled out and perfectly tattooed

Was my name on the back of her hand

Oh my Palmyra
