I started to love this song when i saw jeff do it during one of his solo gigs while wilco were making YHF. I could see what he was doing, so i had no issue working it out So im righting the wrongs of other peoples tabs by tabbing it for YOU! Capo fret 2 (all notation relative to capo) NB. If you intend to play this song with a pick, you may want to put your guitar in drop D, this avoids any nasty dischord if your pick accuracy isnt as good as this song requires. Intro/Verse X 3 -----------------------|-------------------------- ----------2-------2----|-------------2--------2--- -------------3---------|----------------0--------- -------0--------0------|---------0---------0------ ----0------------------|---2(h)------------------- -----------------------|--------------------------
Repeat through the verse(s) NB. Sometimes jeff simply repeats the last section. Im sure you can work it out! Lyrics (if you can sing and play this at the same time, i take my hat off to you!) There's rows and rows of houses, with windows painted blue. With the light from the t.v. running parallel to you. But there is no sunken treasure, rumored to be. Wrapped inside my ribs in a sea.... black with ink. This is the way jeff played the chorus live, no idea what he does on the CD. I am so... I am so... Out of tune... Chorus ---------------------------------------------- ------3--------3------------------------------ ------2--------2----------VERSE RIF----------- ------0--------2------------------------------ ------2--------0------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------- I am so... Out of Tune... With you... ---------------------------------------------- ------3---------2----------------------------- ------2---------2-------------VERSE RIF------- ------0---------2----------------------------- ------2---------0----------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- If I had a mountain, I'd try to fold it over. If I had a boat, you know I'd probably..... roll..... over. And I leave it on the shore, I'd leave it for somebody. Surely there's somebody who needs it more than me. CHORUS All the leaves will burn and autumn fires then return. All the fires we burn, all will return. Music is my savior, and I was maimed by rock and roll. I was maimed by rock and roll. I was tamed by rock and roll. I got my name from rock and roll.
