My first tab.  I hope it's ok.  I know that there is a four chord progression that can be put in that
bridge sung by Jenny Owen Youngs but i think you can just play a D instead?  Would loved to have someone
tab out that part for me.
[Verse]
DCan you see the lonesome tree under the staGrlight?
The clDouds have gone and the sky has won the battle for clF#mear sight
The biDrds have left and there's not a sound up on the hilGlside
The coDld has come and it's sweeping its way on 'til the F#mlow tide
On this DGecember night
                                A             Em7Bm7-Bm
There's a deafening call from a woman on the shore
She wants moGre, and she's askDing me, "What is it all fEor?"
And I nEmever want to tAell her of the cBmold, of getting oCld
Of falling dGown to meet the ground, now only a mCemory of tAmhis tDown
 D (missing chord progession)                          G
Will you believe that this all is a dream, a feverish nightmare?
          D (missing chord progression)                                   F#m
And that all that you've seen has left you unscarred and no worse for the wear
On this unGfortunate night
There's a heaArtbroken cry from a mEmother on the shBmore
She wants mGore, and she's askDing me, "What is it all fGor?"
She's pleadGing with me, "Open up the doE7or!"
And I nevEm7er want to teAll her of the cBmold, of getting Cold
Of falling Gdown to meet the ground, now only a meCmory of thiCsAm  
[Bridge]
F C G Dm Dm7 G A
[Outro]
We want mGore, and we're asDking you, "What is it all fGor?"
It's notDhing like we've ever seen beEfore
But forEmtune doesn't alwAays favor the bBmold, we're still getting oCld
Always falling Gdown to meet the ground, still only a mCemory of thCis tAmown
