Tab request: My Darling??

I'm wondering if anyone has any idea on a FULL tab of this great song. I've seen the chords for the verse/chorus parts (A D F#m E etc) and that sounds right, but I'm trying to figure out the instrumental parts as well; the intro, the interlude, and the outro which is my favorite part of the song. I haven't found a tab anywhere else and I'm stumped trying to decipher it myself.

Hey man,

 

sorry, but I can't help with the interlude and such, but here is a tip.

 

I used to play the song(one of my favorites) like how you described, but I think it sounds with better liket his. Try it. It might make it easier for you to figure out what you are shooting for.

 

Capo on Third Fret

 

 

Verse

 

D

Go back to sleep now

 

G

My darling

 

Bm G

And I will keep all the bad dreams away

 

D

And breathe now

 

G

Breath easy

 

Bm G

And I will say all the right things to say

 

D G

Because we made you my darling

 

Bm A G

From the love that was in our hearts

 

D G A D

We were a family my darling right from the start

 

The rest just repeats itself.

 

Hope that helps.

I figured with the passing of Jay, Id make a very tiny contribution. I was watching a video for My Darling on youtube and I saw Jeff was playing it with a capo on 7. Its a nice alternate to the gumbo pages version. The chords are all the same, but different shapes because of the capo.

 

My Darling

Capo 7

 

Just some notes here:

-Hit the bassnotes!

-I fiddle around with the Ds as much as possible, hammering on and pulling off when it feels right

-This ISNT my tab http://gumbopages.com/music/wilco/songs/my.darling.txt here is the original link, Mr Owen did a very fine job. I just wanted to put the correct chord shapes in there for any rookie out there who wanted to play it with a capo like in the vids.

-RIP Jay
