 The Mountain Goats - "Tyler Lambert's Grave"
 tabbed by J.J.
 -------------------------------------------------
-This was released (as far as I know) only on JD's Twitter feed as a teaser before All Eternals Deck was released. He said he liked the song, it just didn't "fit" the album.

-This song is all piano and cello, so my guitar transcription here is purely for my own amusement. It's just a beautiful song that I love playing along with. As soon as I figure out how to convert M4A to MP3 I'll post it up on the site for those who haven't heard it. I'm certain JD does some very cool piano things in this that I've missed. Please post up any additions or corrections as needed.
+I think the little riff at the line "Tyler Lambert's Grave" sounds a bit more natural if played
+xxx
+then hammer-on the last beat
+xxx
+(hope that makes sense)
-The little riff at the line "Tyler Lambert's grave" I play as an 8th fret F barre chord with my index one fret lower on the E. In the last beat of the measure I slide it up to complete the F. (If a better idea comes up please post it).\\
-So, chorus end riff =  E(slide)/F
