Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
As there aren't many Of Monsters and Men tabs on the Internet as yet I thought I'd try my hand at a few. This is my first tab, I think it's more-or-less spot on. I hope you enjoy playing it.

[Verse]
C Taking over this town, they should worry C But these problems aside I think I taught you well AmFmaj7C That we won't run, and we won't run, and we wont' run
C And in the winter night sky ships are sailing C Looking down on these bright blue city lights AmFmaj7C And they won't wait, and they won't wait, and they won't wait AmFmaj7C We're here to stay, we're here to stay, we're here to stay
[Chorus]
Fmaj7CG Howling ghosts they re-appear Fmaj7CG In mountains that are stacked with fear Fmaj7CGAm But you're a king and I'm a lionheart C A lionheart
[Verse]
C His crown lid up the way as we moved slowly C Passed the wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind AmFmaj7C Though far away, though far away, though far away AmFmaj7C We're still the same, we're still the same, we're still the same
[Chorus]
Fmaj7CG Howling ghosts they re-appear Fmaj7CG In mountains that are stacked with fear Fmaj7CGAm But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
