WHILE I SHOVEL THE SNOW - The Walkmen Tabbed by: Austin Morgan Email: [email protected] Standard Tuning (EADGBe) 3/4 time
If you're playing this on a solo acoustic guitar, it sounds good to alternate the bass notes between the 5th and 6th strings.

D Well they say can't please everyone DEm But I'm stuck on a winning streak A Well today there's clarity AD And tonight I see tomorrow D All at once the winter's here DEm All the lochs are frozen over
A As I look in back of me AD See a shape beside the walkway
Em Half of my life I've been watching A7D Half of my life i've been waking up DEm Birds in the sky could warn me AA7 There's no life like the snow life
D So for now I'll take my time DEm For now I can't be bothered A Well I learned a lot of things AD And I fudged a lot of numbers
D Once again the winter's here DEm All the lochs are frozen over A So I look in back of me AD See a shape beside the walkway
Em Half of my life I've been watching A7D Half of my life I've been waking up DEm Birds in the sky could warn me AA7 There's no life like the snow life
