Released on September 16th 2008, "Hayloft" is the 2nd single from Mother Mother's 2nd album "O My Heart". A very exciting track, with many vocal arrengements and very simple harmonies. One of the best tracks in the album. Tabbed by Pelusteriano Contact at my UG profile http://goo.gl/h2i19 Lyrics by Ryan Guldemond Music by Mother Mother Note: Based on the following live performance Please stop correcting the G# for E, in the video linked above you can clearly see that the guitarist is playing a G#, that same correction has been rejected over and over. =========================================================================== Chords (low to high, in order of appereance) Am X02210 C/G 332010 F 133211 G# 466544 INTRO Am C/G F G# CHORUS
