Welcome Home Punch Brothers
This song is from Antifogmatic, Punch Brothers' second studio album. This is the last
song on the album.
This song is very confusing at first but once you get the weird chord progressions,
you're set for the whole of the song.
You just have to be able to play lots of barre chords! You can play them however you
like but I'll tab them how I do it.
It's probably not the most efficient but find what's right for you in terms of the
chords and their positions.
Read through and look over this tab before and work out how to play it bit by bit then
attempt the whole song.

Verse:
[Abmaj7]Welcome [G]home[Gb]
if [Am]home it [Fm]is an[Ab]d well you [Eb]come[Ab]
we've s[Eb]een the [Am]smoke an[Fm]d smelled the [Cm]fumes[Fm].[Cm] [Em]
[Abmaj7]You went for [G]brok[Gb]e,
then [Am]under [Fm]over a [Ab]couple bu[Eb]cks,[Ab]
threw d[Eb]own the y[Am]oke and[Fm] put up your [Cm]dukes.[Ab] [Eb] [D]
Chorus: (these are all sung separate of one another but are held in one long harmony so
it's a bit hard to place the chord, listen to the song for the timing).
Each chord held for 8 beats apart from the Gm, Cm, the second Ab, the Fm, and the
Gbmaj7, which are all held for twice as long.
You don't have to play the Gm on the 3rd line but it is played by the mandolin in the song.
[Bb] May a b[Bb7]low land[Gm]
[Ab] where you'll [Abmaj7]feel it.[Cm]
[Ab] May your [Gm]fire spread[Fm]
Fm* Gbmaj7 Ebm Db
through the coal-sewn fields.
Verse:
[Abmaj7]Fare thee we[G]ll,[Gb]
in a [Am]welfare [Fm]line or[Ab] thy father's [Eb]will.[Ab]
Don't [Eb]kill us [Am]and we'l[Fm]l go your [Cm]bail.[Fm] [Cm] [Em]
[Abmaj7]You hit and [G]held[Gb]
and [Am]folded, "[Fm]enthra[Ab]lled isn't [Eb]thrille[Ab]d,"
you [Eb]said, "grow [Am]up," and[Fm] away you [Cm]sailed[Ab].[Eb] [D]
Chorus:
[Bb] May the b[Bb7]low land[Gm]
[Ab] where he'll [Abmaj7]see it.[Cm]
[Ab] May your [Gm]fear spread[Fm]
Fm* Gbmaj7 Bbm
through the tear-stained shores.
Bridge: Only start to play chords when the bass comes in

Verse:
[Abmaj7]Welcome [G]home[Gb]
if [Am]home it [Fm]is and[Ab] well you [Eb]come[Ab]
'cause [Eb]fear and [Am]fire[Fm] can't con[Cm]sume[Fm] [Em] [Cm]
[Abmaj7]condemn, con[G]done[Gb],
or [Am]dismiss [Fm]what we[Ab] haven't [Eb]done,[Ab]
and [Eb]he's out of s[Am]alt.
[Fm]Go dress your[Cm] wound[Ab]s.[Eb] [D]
Chorus:
[Bb] Lay a f[Bb7]lare dow[Gm]n
[Ab] by your d[Abmaj7]ull pain[Cm].

[Ebm]or you will move on, [Gmaj7]you will move [Db]on.
