Iron & Wine - Communion Cups & Someone's Coat Lyrics






Talk of yesterday and she will show her
brothers photographed in kalised clothes.
Say tomorrow and she 'll say come find me, on a beach and there will be no moon.

But say today and she will kiss your face and maybe forgive.

Talk of yesterday like bargain shoestring, she will kick the car and find her friends.
Say tomorrow and she'll describe some old communion cups and someones coat.

But say today and she may look your way and lead you home.

  1. G.... R....

    2019 and this song still gets me in my feels.

  2. V.... N....

    thanks for posting!!

  3. J.... A....

    Such a perfect song ♥

  4. E.... T....

    One of my favourites from Sam. It's just so pretty and peaceful.

  5. D.... D....

    There are less than 10 lines in this song, and you can spend a lifetime wondering what they are about and how it changed your life.

  6. d.... c....

    jacking off to this shiiiii

  7. C.... O....

    I love this song-it is my favorite of Sams

  8. S.... S....

    upward over the mountain

  9. T.... ....

    surprising this song isn't that hard to learn if you're in open g tuning. I'm not amazing at the guitar but i had it down extremely close to the actual song in about an hour.

  10. f.... ....

    The Trapeze Artist is one of my favorites.

  11. c.... ....

    Sam's always been a fantastic guitar player, though he used to rely more on layering on his earlier albums. That being said, this song is deceptively easy to play... Capo on the 4th, high E tuned to D.

    c.... ....

    Its not that easy! I've seen him play it live (!) and he messed it up. Still amazing to witness that.

  12. M.... ....

    It's actually impossible for me to get tired of this. In my opinion, it's one of his most beautiful songs. <3

  13. s.... ....

    put "repeat" without the quotation marks after youtube and before the .com in the address bar.

  14. c.... ....

    @DaveDragon1985 But let's be honest... if they dislike this song, they obviously must not have ears in the first place.

  15. c.... ....

    PRETTY SOUNDS, Y U SO SHORT? :(

  16. R.... ....

    @bspiege17 He's always been this good.His songs are so fucking hard to play.

  17. A.... G....

    i wish this song can go for ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  18. b.... ....

    Youtube needs a repeat button. I'm getting sick of coming over to my laptop to click.

  19. M.... M....

    I only wish Sam made this song longer.

  20. S.... J....

    Sam looks exactly like my social studies teacher lol

  21. S.... T....

    love it when great music has great lyrics too. I had this on my mp3 player for 2 years before i ever heard it and now I just play it over and over :)

  22. D.... ....

    3 people should have their ears replaced with ears of an ass for disliking this..

  23. S.... ....

    @atikker No Worries!

  24. a.... ....

    @Snowking587 AHHH TRYING TO LIKE YOUR COMMENT I PRESSED VOTE DOWN AND IT WON'T LET ME CHANGE IT! Sorry :(

  25. S.... ....

    The Thumbs Down Button Should Not Exist When It Comes To Music Like This!

  26. R.... C....

    @bspiege17 Since The Shepherd´s Dog, I guess...

  27. A.... G....

    Ugh! The worst thing about this song is how short it is. <3

  28. i.... ....

    it is my ambition in life to play this song
    incredible

  29. N.... N....

    Ha ha, all of his songs share so many parts. This uses the same tuning as Fever Dream, and even one of the riffs from the chorus. And the chorus from this song uses the Dmaj with the 11 instead of the 5th that shows up in Naked As We Came and Two Hungry Blackbirds.

    (Don't mean to discredit him at all - He knows how to make the most beautiful music. I just think it's interesting, is all.)

  30. N.... N....

    @bspiege17 I keep asking myself the same thing. :)

  31. r.... a....

    Sam Beam is a role model to me. So wise, so pleasant, so very good at what he does. And look at the size of that beard.

  32. A.... Y....

    anyone else notice the white triangle around his left eye?

  33. M.... P....

    its not posted because its a rare track.
    Its not on my version of the album passing afternoon..

  34. N.... ....

    I never got that into them, but I really liked the songs that I have listened to.

  35. W.... M....

    @bspiege17 not following. Got evidence he's really bad? ;) Its not much different than a lot of his other stuff, just a slightly different picking pattern and variation :)

  36. L.... P....

    check out Peng! 33

    it's a cover, but wayyyy far and beyond the original version. Innocent Bones and The Wind is Low are nice, too

    L.... P....

    Leftover Pie i love sterolab

  37. a.... ....

    wow. what are some other beautiful iron and wine tunes? I remember liking almost all the songs off the album with "each coming night" by the way

  38. W.... S....

    message me and I'll send it to you. nobody should be without music like this. =] I have the entire discography if there's other things you need. but I recommend buying albums to support such quality inspiration and music.

  39. A.... ....

    I cannot find anywhere this song... does any of you have it in a file???

  40. M.... J....

    Awesome Song
