I used Hackenbush's tab, which is great by the way, I just made it into basic chords.

Song is in 3/4 -- Capo on 4th fret


G Bm C Bm
Sadie, white coat
G Bm C Bm
you carry me home
G Bm C Bm
And bury this bone
G Bm C Bm
and take this pine cone

Bm D Am C
Bury this bone to
G Gmaj7
Gnaw on it later
Em
Gnawing on the telephone
Bm D Am C
Until then, we pray and suspend
G Gmaj7 Em
The notion that these lives do never end

G
And all day long we talk about mercy
G C D G
Lead me to water, Lord, I sure am thirsty
G
Down in the ditch where I nearly served you
G C D G
Up in the clouds where he almost heard you

C
And all that we built and all that we breathed
Em
And all that we spilt, or pulled up like weeds
G C D G
Is piled up in back and it burns irrevocably
Em C D G
And we spoke up in turns 'til the silence crept over me

G Bm C Bm
And bless you, and I deeply do
G Bm C Bm
No longer resolute, oh and I call to you
G Bm C Bm
But the water go so cold
G Bm C Bm
And you do lose what you don't hold

Bm D Am C
This is an old song, these are old blues
G Gmj7 Em
And this is not my tune, but it's mine to use
Bm D Am C
And the seabirds where the fear once grew
G Gmaj7 Em
Will flock with a fury and they will bury what'd come for you

G
And down where I darn with the milk-eyed mender
G C D G
You and I, and a love so tender
G
Stretched on a hoop where I stitched this adage:
G C D G
"Bless our house and its heart so savage"

C
And all that I want, and all that I need
Em
And all that I've got is scattered like seed
G C D G
And all that I knew is moving away from me
Em C D G
And all that I know is blowing like tumbleweed

G Bm C Bm
And the mealy worms in the brine will burn
G Bm C Bm
In a salty pyre among the fauns and ferns
G Bm C Bm
And the love we hold, and the love we spurn
G Bm C Bm
Will never grow cold, only taciturn
G Bm C Bm
And I'll tell you tomorrow
G Bm C Bm
Sadie, go on home now
G Bm C Bm
And bless those who've sickened below
G Bm C Bm
And bless us who have chosen so

C
And all that I've got and all that I need
Em
I tie in a knot and I lay at your feet
G C D G
And I have not forgot, but a silence crept over me
Em C D G
So dig up your bone, exhume your pine cone, my Sadie
