-edit- I'm an idiot, i just gave you the tab for sodom, south georgia, another good iron and wine song, i just didnt read or something... Sorry, i remember such great heights is capo'ed on the 6th fret. Start out with a C (x32010), then a G (320001), a simple F chord (130000), then C, then G, nothing to it. You'll pick up the picking pattern preatty quick, pay attention to the hammer on with the G chord, you start out with just playing 3x0001 then you hammer on the 320001. Good song, it owns the original.

I'm doing this off the top of my head so I don't know if it will be perfect. Capo on the 7th fret. Start out by playing x5403x, then x0201x, then pull off of the d string then back on, then hit a C chord (x3201x) again pulling on and off of the d string, then hit a rough G chord, i think I ended up just hitting 3x000x and then 320000. That's the main chorus. The next part continue going through but when you get to the C, don't go to the G, hit an em 022000. The when hes going "papa died sunday" you go back to the G, then the C, then a full am chord (x0221x), then when he says "all dead white boys" you go back to the C, then am and go back and forth between those 2 a few times, then back to the chorus. Use your fingers to pick and strum, dont use a pick, it will not sound the same. I dont really know how to describe the picking patter. it generally consists of you first hitting the second string, then a strum, then working your way back up then repeating.
