NOTES:
* All words, capitalization and line breaks are original to
  Mark Kozelek's notations in his book Nights of Passed Over.
* I know several versions of this song exist on UG -- this one
  differs because I worked very hard to ensure that all chord
  voicings are as original as possible, except for the part of
  the instrumental sections -- I added in the mandolin solo
  because I love playing it, and it sounds good on the guitar.
* Em9 at the end of the chorus is hard to get down rhythmically.
  Keep in mind that it's a broken barre with first finger across
  the 6th-4th strings, with a hammer-on the 4th string. After that,
  best advice I can give is to just listen a lot and really work
  on digging into that percussive tone on the bottom. The
  strings should bottom out a bit when it's played right.
