  1. Terrific thread starter Kidsmoke

     

    Honeycombed

     

    So soon
    How will the weather bring
    Sing like the children have sung
    High as the stars are hung
    I vanish before I go

     

    And from above
    Every cemetery
    Against the bloom
    Rattle the pigs, visit the silence
    Waking up an open wound

    I feel a lot of Jay Bennett's spirit here too. Pat and Mike came up with some positively inspired keyboard layers, and some of Jeff's melodies have a Tweedy/Bennett-ish vibe to them. I don't want to deride the guys in the band now, there all super talented, they deserve all the credit for making the best record of this lineup's. But it'll always, always be a plus for me when I start thinking of Jay Bennett on a Wilco record.

    Could not agree more. I, too, thought of Jay while listening to the album...

  3. This seems pretty close to how Brett Sparks plays this in concert...

     

    So Much Wine

    ----------

     

    Intro/Harmonica: D G D Bm G D

    D G D

    I had nothing to say on Christmas day

    Bm A Em

    When you threw all your clothes in the snow.

    D G D

    When you burnt your hair, knocked over chairs,

    Bm G D

    I just tried to stay out of your way.

    D G D

    But when you fell asleep with blood on your teeth,

    Bm G D

    I got in my car and drove away.

    D G

    Listen to me, Butterfly,

    G D Bm G

    There's only so much wine you can drink in one life

    G D Bm G D

    And it will never be enough to save you from the bottom of your glass.

     

    Harmonica break: D G D Bm G D

    D G D

    Where the state highway starts, I stopped my car.

    Bm G D

    I got out and stared up at the stars.

    D G D Bm G

    As meteors died and shot across the sky, I thought about your sad,

    D

    shining eyes.

    D G D

    I came back for my clothes when the sun finally rose

    Bm G D

    But you were still passed out on the floor

    D G

    Listen to me, Butterfly,

    G D Bm G

    There's only so much wine you can drink in one life

    G D Bm G D

    But it will never be enough to save you from the bottom of your glass.

    Harmonica break: D G D Bm G D

     

  4. Here is my take:

     

    Wilco - Reservations
    Standard - Capo 5
    
    
    Intro:
    C	C/B	Am	Em	F	G	C	G
    
    
    C                                 C/B
    How can I convince you it's me I don't like
       Am		                  Em
    And not be so indifferent to the look in your eyes
    F
    When I've always been distant
                        G	      C		F
    And I've always told lies for love
    
    C			      C/B
    I'm bound by these choices so hard to make
    Am			     Em
    I'm bound by the feeling so easy to fake
    F                       G		C	  F          
    None of this is real enough to take me from you
    
    C	 Em         
    I've got reservations
         Am      Em          Am        G
    About so many things, but not about you
    
    
    C	C/B	Am	Em	F	G	C	G
    
    C				   C/B
    I know this isn't what you were wanting me to say
    Am			      Em
    How can I get closer and be further away
        F				      G	       C	F
    From the truth that proves it's beautiful to lie
    
    C	 Em         
    I've got reservations
         Am      Em          Am        G
    About so many things, but not about you
    
    C	 Em         
    I've --- reservations
         Am      Em          Am        G
    About so many things, but not about you
             G/F#
    Not about you
             F
    Not about you
             Em
    Not about you
                  C
    It's not about you
    
    C	C/B	Am	Em	F	G	C	G
