How to play "Boy With A Coin" by Iron and Wine

That hammer off is supposed to be during the C chord not the Em

A boy with a coin he found in the weeds
With bullets and pages of trade magazines
Close to a car that flipped on the turn
When God left the ground to circle the world

A girl with a bird she found in the snow
Then flew up her gown and thats how she knows
That God made her eyes for crying at birth
Then left the ground to circle the Earth

A boy with a coin he crammed in his jeans
Then making a wish he tossed in the sea
Walked to a town that all of us burn
When God left the ground to circle the world

Thank you so much, just learn the whole thing so fast. Thought it would be really hard but turns out you're a very good teacher. Cheers.

Thank you SO much- most tutorials just slowly do it for you, this is a much easier way to learn it, you actually explain it, and I didn't feel overwhelmed trying to learn.. and its way more fun to play the real guitar progression instead of just accompanying vocals with chords. Thanks!

Excellent tutorial, thank you so much.

Also, i like your voice, I'm gonna go look for videos of you doing covers and not just tutorials. Check out my iron and wine cover of cinder and smoke if you like. :)

Thanks again.

Great tutorial, but switching to the em is not necessary since you don;t play the a string, You can just keep the c chord for both parts
