WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Mumford And Sons - Awake My Soul Tabs | Ver. 3
This is my first tab like this. I've done some Guitar Pro tabs in the past,
but unfortunately they're not accessible by everyone. So, while playing this
really beautiful song, I figured I might as well tab it. The chords may not be
exactly the ones that M&S actually play, but it sounds about right.
The tuning used in this song is also used in "Sigh No More" and "Little Lion Man".
Please leave a comment, if you find a mistake.

this theme is played through the whole first part of the song. I like to
play the bass notes of the respective chords during the verses instead of
the open C-string to make it sound a little less dull, but I wouldn't
recommend it, if you've got someone to play the 2nd guitar.
The verses have a rather uncommon time signature (7/4), but it's easy to figure
it out by listening to the song.
FIRST PART:
C G C
How fickle my heart and how woozy my eyes
G C
I struggle to find any truth in your lies
G C
And now my heart stumbles on things I don't know
G C
My weakness I feel I must finally show
Lend me your hand and we'll conquer them all
But lend me your heart and I'll just let you fall
Lend me your eyes I can change what you see
But your soul you must keep, totally free
C/B a C/B C C/B a C/B C
Har har, har har, har har, har har
C/B a C/B C
A- wake my soul
F C a C
In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die
F C a C
Where you invest your love, you invest your life
In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die
Where you invest your love, you invest your life
