Wasn't aware Wilco did a version. Where would I find it?

 

I've heard the UT version in their last show, but hadn't bothered to tab it out.

 

Little Feat's version is in an open tuning, I believe. I've used open G and capoed it at the 2nd fret to get an open A and that works pretty well.

Hi Pecan Pie,

 

I think you're looking for "I Am Not Willing," a Moby Grape song that Wilco covered. It appears in my A.M. demos, too.

 

 

Never doubting

Always faithful

She returns

 

She says she loves me

And I could always

Come to her

 

She can

Hey, here's my go.

 

Never [D]doubting

Always [C]faithful

She re[G]turns

[C] [G] [C]

 

She says she [D]loves me

And I could [C]always

Come to [G]her

[C] [G] [C]

 

... and so on

 

For best effect, hammer on the F# (second fret, high e string) when playing the D chord.

 

The lead parts are mostly just G minor and major pentatonic licks played in the third and first positions, respectively. I can transcribe a few of them if you'd like.

 

Cheers

There's a great recording of Uncle Tupelo's final show at Mississippi Nights...

They cover Little Feat's (Lowell George's) "Willin'" on the second disc. The name of that bootleg is "Not Forever, Just for Now"

 

That cut rivals the softer original version by miles and miles. It really evokes the weed, whites, and wine. I love a good trucker song.
