No Oath, No Spell by Murder By Death, murderbydeath.com
From the Album "Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon"
Tabbed by Justin Silliker (axeface@gmail.com)
This tab is based off an acoustic version done for the "Violitionist Sessions." It's off
their upcoming record "Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon" out Sept. 25, 2012 on Bloodshot
Records. They've been playing this song for awhile live and this is as accurate as I can
get it. I'm tossed up about a few of the chords in the song, I don't believe it's
always an Em
throughout and the "F5" is questionable.
Please feel free to submit any revisions or at least submit a corrected version of the
song. But otherwise enjoy!
Standard Tuning
F5 - 224434

An old crow, spoke to me,

Old woman, tell me why did you lie

So long in your hospital bed

With the spark gone from your eyes

We both know, theres nowhere to go

We won't be broken
