Bump.

I posted this same question on the Lyrics and Tabs forum but it seems a little slow over there. I was wondering if somebody could help me out. I've been trying to arrive at something more definitive for this burning question in my head. In the song 'Capitol City', does anyone know what are the station names during the announcement during the interlude? 

Some seem more clear to me than others...

1. Flemington

2. Woodhouse

3. ????

4. ????

5. Princeton (?)

Perhaps NJ transit names? Made up? 

Sorry if this has already been previously discussed. I couldn't find any similar threads via search.

During the 'Capitol City' interlude, does anyone know what the station names being called out by the announcement read in a male voice? 

Some sound more clear than others...

1. Flemington

2. Woodhouse

5. Princeton (?)

sounds like them a bit

Ahh...for sure.

man this song rocks - the byrds, the kinks maybe?

Huh?

A dream I wanna keep having...

Yes!

If the play Mountain Bed next I may just have happiness convulsions on the floor...

This setlist...my lord!

Passenger...NICE!!

HAHAHA

we're back!!

What a fantastic show! This was my 5th time seeing Wilco, and it was by far the best set list I've seen them perform. Loved the love that Mermaids and Summerteeth got.

Summerteeth is for sure my favorite Wilco album and the one I find myself playing back the best.

Thank you for the welcome and for the info/link to Gumbo Pages! I'll give them a try.

Cheers!

First off, welcome!

 

You can find a lot of tabs on the Gumbo Pages (some more accurate than others): The Gumbo Pages

 

This one's from there (and it looks pretty good to me):

   C				 am	   F			C
To the rich man's bright lodges I ride in this wind
C				  am		  D		   G
On my good horse I call you my shiny Black Bess
   C			am
To the playhouse of fortune
  F			   C
to take the bright silver
C			 am		 F		C
and gold you have taken from somebody else


C		am			F		  C
and as we go riding in the damp foggy midnight 
C			  am			D			G
you snort, my good pony, and you give me your best
	C		   am		 F  
for you know, and I know, good horse,
	   C
'monst the rich ones
C		  am		  F		 C
how oftimes we go there an unwelcome guest

 C		  am			F		  C
I've never took food from the widows and orphans
C	   am		   D	 G
and never a hard working man I oppressed
  C			  am
so take your pace easy,
F			  C
for home soon like lightning
  C			am		 F		   F
we soon will be riding, my shiny black Bess

  C			  am	   F		C
no fat rich man's pony can ever overtake you
C			 am			 D		   G
and there's not a rider from the east to the west
  C		  am
could hold you a light 
	F			 C  
in this dark mist and midnight
	 C		  am
when the potbellied thieves 
	  F		 C
chase the unwelcome guest

C				 am			   
I don't know good horse
  F			C
as we trot in this dark here
 C		   am		  D			G
that robbing the rich is for worse or for best
 C		  am		   F		 C
they take it by stealing and lying and gambling
C			am	  F		   C
and I take it my way, my shiny Black Bess

 C			am		   F		   C
I treat horses good and I'm friendly to strangers
 C			 am			   D			 G
I ride and your running makes my guns talk the best
	C		   am		   
and the rangers and deputies
F			C
are hired by the rich man 
  C			am		  F			 C
to catch me and hang me, my shining Black Bess

 C				am		  F
Yes, they'll catch me napping one day
		C
and they'll kill me
C			am			D		   G
and then I'll be gone but that won't be my end
   C		   am		  F		 C
For my guns and my saddle will always be filled
  C		 am			 F		   C
by unwelcome travellers and other brave men

		C		am		F			  C
and they'll take the money and spread it out equal
C			 am			D		G	   
Just like the bible and the prophets suggest
	C		   am		F			   C
but the men that go riding to help these poor workers
C			 am		   F		 C
the rich will cut down like an unwelcome guest

 

I hope this helps.

I know Unwelcome Guest isn't the hardest of Wilco songs but I was wondering if anyone had that tab or chords handy. I wasn't able to come up with anything using the search tool.

Thanks!
