Little Lion Man
Capo at 5
(Listen for rhythm and strumming pattern)
x4
(To emulate banjo play -add6 the last two times)
Weep for yourself, my man,
you'll never be what is in your heart.
Weep little lion man,
you're not as brave as you were at the start.
Rate yourself and rape yourself,
take all the courage you have left.
Wasted on fixing all the
problems that you made in your own head.
But it was not your fault but mine,
and it was your heart on the line.
I really fucked it up this time,
didn't I, my dear?
Didn't I, my dear?
x2
Tremble for yourself my man,
you know that you have seen this all before.
Tremble little lion man,
you'll never settle any of your scores.
Your grace is wasted in your face,
your boldness stands alone among the wreck.
Learn from your mother or else
spend your days biting your own neck.
But it was not your fault but mine,
and it was your heart on the line.
I really fucked it up this time,
didn't I, my dear?
But it was not your fault but mine,
and it was your heart on the line.
I really fucked it up this time,
didn't I, my dear?
Didn't I, my dear?

Bridge:
x8
(Sing "aaah"s times 3-8)
(Mute)
But it was not your fault but mine,
and it was your heart on the line.
I really fucked it up this time,
didn't I, my dear?
(Mute)
But it was not your fault but mine,
and it was your heart on the line.
I really fucked it up this time,
didn't I, my dear?
Didn't I, my dear?
The Cave
Capo: 4th Fret
It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind
The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat
But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again
Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Now let me at the truth
Which will refresh my broken mind
So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults
And despite my growing fears
But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again
So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker's hand
So make your siren's call
And sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say
Cause I need freedom now
And I need to know how
To live my life as it's meant to be
But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again
White Blank Page
8 counts of then 4 counts each of and then
.............., ,, .......................,,,
Can you lie next to her,
and give her your heart, your heart,
as well as your body,
and can you lie close to her,
and profess your love, your love,
as well as your folly,
and can you kneel before the king,
and say i'm clean, i'm clean.
But tell me now where was my fault,
In loving you with my whole heart,
Oh tell me now where was my fault,
In loving you with my whole heart.
............................, , , , , .......
A white blank page,
And a swelling rage, rage,
You did not think,
When you sent me,
To the brink, the brink,
You desired my attention,
But denied my affections, my affections.
So, tell me now where was my fault,
In loving you with my whole heart.
Oh tell, me now where was my fault,
In loving you with my whole heart.
Ahhh, ahhh, ah ahhhh ah ahhhhh.....
Lead me to the truth and i,
Will follow you with my whole lie,
Lead me to the truth and i,
Will follow you with my whole lie....
Winter Winds
(x2)
As the winter winds litter London with lonely hearts
Oh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms
Was it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night?
For every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt
And my head told my heart
"Let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"This time no, this time no..."
We'll be washed and buried one day my girl
And the time we were given will be left for the world
The flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by plague
So let the memories be good for those who stay... hey!
And my head told my heart
"Let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"This time no, this time no..."
Oh the shame that sent me off from the God that I once loved
Was the same that sent me into your arms
Oh and pestilence is won when you are lost and I am gone
And no hope, no hope will overcome
(Bring back to normal strumming)
And if your strife strikes at your sleep
Remember spring swaps snow for leaves
You'll be happy and wholesome again
When the city clears and sun ascends... hey!
PAUSE
SOLO:
(x2)
And my head told my heart
"Let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"This time no..."
And my head told my heart
"Let love grow"
But my heart told my head
"This time no, this time no..."
Roll Away Your Stone
Capo 2
(x2)
Roll away your stone I will roll away mine
Together we can see what we will find
Don't leave me alone at this time
For I am afraid of what I will discover inside
You told me that I wouldn't find a home
Beneath the fragile substance of my soul
And I have filled this void with things unreal
And all the while my character it steals
Darkness is a harsh term don't you think
Yet it dominates the things I see
It seems that all my bridges have been burned
But you say 'That's exactly how this grace thing works
It's not the long walk home that will change this heart
But the welcome I receive with every start
Darkness is a harsh term don't you think
Yet it dominates the things I see
(let ring)
Stars hide your fires
For these here are my desires
And I won't give them up to you this time around
()
And so I'll be found
With my stake stuck in this ground
Marking the territory of this newly impassioned soul
Hide your fires
For these here are my desires
And I won't give them up to you this time around
()
And so I'll be found
With my stake stuck in this ground
Marking the territory of this newly impassioned soul
(let ring)
And you, you've gone too far this time
You have neither reason nor rhyme
(let ring)
With which to take this soul that is so rightfully mine
After The Storm
And after the storm,
I run and run as the rains come
And I look up, And I look up,
on my knees and out of luck,
I look up.
Night has always pushed up day
You must know life to see decay
But I won't rot, I won't rot
Not this mind and not this heart,
I won't rot.
And I took you by the hand
And we stood tall,
And remembered our own land,
What we lived for.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dis-miss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flow....wers in your hair.
And now I cling to what I knew
I saw exactly what was true
But oh no more,That's why I hold,
That's why I hold with all I have.
That's why I hold.
And I will die alone
and be left there.
Well I guess I'll just go home,
Oh God knows where.
Because death is just so full
and mine so small.
I'm scared of what's behind
and what's before.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dis-miss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flow....wers in your hair.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dis-miss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flow....wers in your hair.
Awake My Soul
Capo 2
[1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1|
[-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-|
How fickle my heart and how woozy my eyes
I struggle to find any truth in your lies
And now my heart stumbles on things I don't know
This 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
Har har, har har, har har, har har
In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die
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
Awake my soul, awake my soul
Awake my soul
You were made to meet your maker
Awake my soul, awake my soul
Awake my soul
You were made to meet your maker
You were made to meet your maker
Sigh no more
riff (picked)
* *
* *
Serve God love me and men
* *
This is not the end
* *
Lived unbruised we are friends
And I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Sigh no more, no more
One foot in sea one on shore
My heart was never pure
And you know me
And you know me
And man is a giddy thing
Oh man is a giddy thing
Oh man is a giddy thing
Oh man is a giddy thing
Love that will not betray you, dismay or enslave you,
It will set you free
Be more like the man you were made to be.
There is a design, An alignment to cry,
At my heart you see,
The beauty of love as it was made to be (x4)

d
[4:13]
Spare me your judgements and spare me your dreams
Cause recently mine have been tearing my seams
I sit alone in this winter clarity which clouds my mind
Alone in the wind and the rain you left me
It's getting dark darling, too dark to see
And I'm on my knees, and your faith in shreds, it seems
Corrupted by the simple sniff of riches blown
I know you have felt much more love than you've shown
And I'm on my knees and the water creeps to my chest
But plant your hope with good seeds
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds
Rain down, rain down on me
Look over your hills and be still
The sky above us shoots to kill
Rain down, rain down on me
But I will hold on
I will hold on hope
I begged you to hear me, there's more than flesh and bones
Let the dead bury the dead, they will come out in droves
But take the spade from my hands and fill in the holes you've made
But plant your hope with good seeds
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds
Rain down, rain down on me
I Gave You All
Tuning: open DADFAd
Chords
Inrto
Rip the earth in two with your mind
Seal the urge which ensues with brass wires
I never meant you any harm
But your tears feel warm as they fall on my forearm
But close my eyes for a while
Force from the world a patient smile
How can you say that your truth is better than ours?
Shoulder to shoulder, now brother, we carry no arms
The blind man sleeps in the doorway, his home
If only I had an enemy bigger than my apathy I could have won
But I gave you all
I gave you all
I gave you all
2x
Close my eyes for a while
Force from the world a patient smile
But I gave you all
I gave you all
I gave you all
But you rip it from my hands
And you swear it's all gone
And you rip out all I have
Just to say that you've won
Well now you've won
Well now you've won
But I gave you all
I gave you all

I gave you all
(same as interlude, just slower)
Not all tabs were from me. I just wanted to put this album together because
Mumford and Sons are such a great band!! Thank you to all the people who tabbed these songs out!
(Please add The Pilgrimage on Facebook* and give us a look-up!! We'd appreciate it
