A bit tricky to get the timing down and sing, but sounds awsome on a slightly
overdriven guitar, or an acoustic.
Play it in Barre chords it is easier and sounds better.
I tried to give direction as to what fret to play barre at that sounds best to me,
experement and let me know.
Go see him live... will make a fan out of a critic..
David Bazan
Weeds in the Wheat-live at the Grey Eagle
GGod blesG7s the man who stumblesF  
GGod blesG7s the man who fallsF  
C(at 8) C7   F   G   G7  F  
God bless the man who yields to temptation
God bless the woman who suffers
God bless the woman who weeps
God bless the children trying her patience
Bb(at 6) G#  F#  
Trouble getting over it is what you’re in for
So pour yourself G#another
Bb(at6) G#  Eb(bar at 11) C#(bar at 9)
‘Cause it’ll take a steady pair of hands
Holy or unholy ghost
Well now I can’t tell
But either way you cut it
You should get some distance if you plan
To take a stand
GGod bless G7the house dividFed
GGod bless G7the weed in the whFeat
C   C7   F   G   G7  Bm(bar at 2)
God bless the lamp lit under a bushel
C(bar at8) A   Dm  G  
I discovered hell to be the poison in the well
Cm(at3) F   G7   G  
So I tried to warn the others of the curse
C(bar at 8) A  
But then my body turned on me
DmI dreamt that fGor eternity my faCmmily would burFn
Bb  D(bar at 10)
Then I awoke, with a wicked thirst
Verse Chords with woah woahs
BbBy my baby’s yelloG#w bed I kissed her fF#orehead
G#And rubbed her little tummy
BbAnd wondered if sG#he’ll soon despise the smEbell
C#Of the booze on my breath, like her mom
BbThrough a darkenG#ed mirror I have seF#en my own reflectG#ion
BbAnd it makes me want to be a betteG#r man
EbAfter another drinC#k
God bless the man at the crossroads
God bless the woman who still can’t sleep
God bless the history that doesn’t repeat
