This tab is based on the Youtube video version of Morphine Girl they do at The Old Guitar.
Every now and then Emily will take off the pinky and play the Cmaj7/G chord at the end of the verse
lines. Just doing it when it sounds good.

[Verse]
A7 C/G Head was hung low and your sound was much older A7 C/G But as record spins, time tip toes bye A7 C/G Bones on a thread, fall from your shoulders A7 C/G Stitching the seam between the earth and the sky
[Instrumental Break]
|A7 C/G Cmaj7/G| x2
[Verse]
A7 C/G Your wearing the soul of a coal miners daughter A7 C/G Down in a hole singing your song A7 C/G Or kicking the wheel back in some holler A7 C/G Patching up holes in the setting sun
[Chorus]
C/G G D/F# Am We are the ones that hang by the needle C/G G D/F# Stuck in a grove cut by your hand C/G G D/F# Am Wrapped in a cloak, safe in a shadow C/G G D/F# Cavalry's arch cast on the land
[Instrumental Break]
|A7sus2 A7*||A7 C/G Cmaj7/G| x2 |A7sus2|
A7 C/G Cracks in the sound and the hiss of a silence A7 C/G The kiss of death then the palest blue A7 C/G Seventh horse that road for to warn us A7 C/G Morphine girl and the sorta truth
[Chorus]
C/G G D/F# Am We are the ones that hang by the needle C/G G D/F# Stuck in a grove cut by your hand C/G G D/F# Am Wrapped in a cloak, safe in a shadow C/G G D/F# Cavalry's arch cast on the land
