Morning dreads follow light
A lifted dawn, hungover night
Porch dwellin’ dreamers who can’t remember why they came
To sleepwalk
And sweet talk
To pluck your pretty petals until he loves you not
He loves me not

So feast your eyes, then they disappear
The young at heart, the insincere
The well-meaning, troublemaking troubadours
And you toss, and you turn
You live, and you learn
Just when you thought you had it in your grasp, it flew away
It flew away

Like fireflies, fickle light,
burning holes into the night
All the night owls want to know,
Oh, where did the love go?
Oh, where did the love go?

Sorry for the weird chord placements, I didn’t have time to correct them; if you
are familiar with the song or play along with it you’ll figure out where they belong.

These are my first ever chords, and I think they’re fairly accurate. Enjoy!

one strum

I wait, on the Emerald Isle
For you to come and rescue me
From every step I can’t take
Feet don’t you ever break
Drag me over that line

Halfway, around the medicine ball
Is far enough to blow me back
Like you broke the bank on the ticket
Worth every damn nickel
Well you got me, that time

‘Cause I’ve been on the road one day too long
Can’t hear the record for another sad song
Look at all these faces can’t all be wrong
That’s a lot of my heart out there
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/whitehorse/emerald_isle_crd.html )
Did you fly, a million miles
For every single one that I ran
I don’t know which of us is crazier
Oh sweet baby
That’s the madness, I desire

And there’s a twinkle, in the clifted sky
Been there forever
And lights the way for the waters
The jackals and the lovers
And the broken street lights

‘Cause I’ve been on the road one day too long
Can’t hear the record for another sad song
Look at all these faces can’t all be wrong
That’s a lot of my heart out there

So do we keep running through the motions baby
Knowing that someday is gonna come maybe
When you can’t keep your pretty mouth from saying
I wanna go home

Am F C Dm F Am G (x2)

Am F C
I wait, on the emerald isle for you to come and rescue me
