Song: The Avalanche
Tabbed by: "Buzz" (s3128186@student.rmit.edu.au)
The actual finger picking for this song isn't hard to figure out.
There are a few hammer-ons and pull offs around the Am and C chords.
And for the "Come on, Stone.." part there is a hint of D Major, so what
I do is very discretely play a few D Major chords every so often. But its
up to you.
Capo on 1st Fret

Dsus2 Am
I call ye cabin neighbors
F C
I call you once my friends
Dsus2 Am
But I trust when you labor
F C
And put my head to rest
Dsus2 Am
But I was on the hatch
F C
I was on the avalanche
Dsus2 Am
And I had found my match
F C
I was on the floor
Dsus2 Am
I took a train from Virginia
F C
To Illinois, my home
Dsus2 Am
He said .I knew you had it in ya"
F C
A mind to make its own
Dsus2 Am
But I was on the hatch
F C
Riding on the avalanche
Dsus2 Am
I tried to take it back
F C
I was on the floor
Dsus2
Come on, Stone!
Come on, Star!
Come on, Snow!
Come on, Car!
Come on, Hands!
Come on, Feet!
Come on, Face!
Come on, Street!
Come on, State!
Come on, Song!
Move it fast! (Take it up)
Move it along! (The Ohio River)
Come on, Life! (Take it up)
Come on, Lord! (Take it over)
Make it right! (To the Mississippi)
Make it Yours!
