Teeth In The Grass Tabs

(ver. 1)
Iron And Wine
Teeth in the Grass - Iron & Wine
Standard Tuning (E A D G B E)
Written by Sam Beam

This is my first attempt at tabbing anything so I apologize if there are any
small errors, but this sounds about perfect to me.
Anyway, this is one of the most underrated Iron & Wine songs.  Nice and fast with
a little bit of a menacing sound to it.  Here goes!

Capo on the 2nd

Lyrics:
And when you give me your clothes
And when we’re lovers at last
Fresh air, perfume in your nose
There will be teeth in the grass

And when you give me your house
When we’re all brothers at last
There will be food in our mouths
There will be teeth in the grass

And when there’s nothing to want
When we’re all brilliant and fast
When all tomorrows are gone
There will be teeth in the grass
