This here is the D-THING riff that the song is based around. Try and make it work for you and your
style....there are also all sorts of fills here and there. You'll have to figure that our yourself.

in that September off
Isle aux Morts
the desultory sea
grew more so through the night
and made one think of
tawny ports,
as aspen tremblin'
in tomorrow's thorough light
G and of Tallulah Bankhead and Canada Lee D-THING somewhere far-off, peaceful, sleeping and done with acting G past the Dire Wolf's lair on a Newfoundland's paws D-THING close to nowhere and halfway across
[Chorus]
G A but never more 'here' Bm D expanse getting broader G A though bigger boats been Bm done by less water G A Bm D though better boats been done by this water G A D-THING though better boats been done by less water D-THING in that September off Isle aux Morts colourable seas grew more to through the night G And made one think of
yawnin' shores
D-THING
Gambier-bleached
in tomorrow's thorough light
G
and the Tallulah Bankheadand Canada Lee
D-THING somewhere far-off, peaceful, sleeping they learned to love sleep
[Chorus]
G A at the Dire Wolf's crest Bm D the Newfoundland paused G A desolate's best Bm D was gotten across G A we were never more 'here' Bm D expanse getting broader G A when better boats been Bm D done by this water [Solo] G D-THING
[Chorus]
G A at the Dire Wolf's best Bm D the Newfoundland paused G A so desperate as Bm D to be a lost cause G A you were never more hear Bm D expanse getting broader G A when better boats been Bm D done by this water G A Bm D where bigger boats been done by less water G A Bm D and betting boats been done by this water G A Bm D when bigger boats been done by less water G A Bm D and better boats been done by this water
