kamera Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Anyone ever tab this out? I tried the search, but had no luck. Thanks for any help with this! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
anthony Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Have this from somewhere. The intro is not quite right - but close. My advice is to improvise around this prgoression. Intro: |-----3------3-2-2-3-3-3-------------0-----------------------| |-----0------0-0-0-0-0-3-----x---1---1---------1-------------| |-----0------0-0-0-0-0-4--4--x---0---0-----------0-----------| |-----0------0-0-0-0-0-4-----x---2---2---1/2-------2p0-------| |-----x------x-x-x-x-0-2---------3---3-------------------3---| |-3----------3-2-2-3-3---------------------------------------| [G]She's a jar [Bm]With a heavy lid [C]My pop quiz kid [G]A sleepy kisser [Bm]A pretty war [C]With feelings hid [C]She begs me not to miss her G Bm C x2 [G]She says forever [Bm]To light a fuse [C]We could use [C]A hand full of wheel [G]And a day off [Bm]And a bruised road [C]However you might feel [G]Tonight is real Bm C G Bm C [G]When I forget how to [Bm]talk I sing [C]Won't you please [C]Bring that [G]flash to shine [Bm]And turn my eyes red [C]Unless they close when you click And my [G]face gets sick [Bm]Stuck [C]Like a question unposed G Bm C x2 [G]Just climb [Am]aboard [D7]The tracks of a train's arm [Ebdim 1&2] [Em]In my fragile family [Bm]tree [Bm Bbm Am] [Am]And watch me floating [D7]inches above The people under [Ebdim 1&2]me E-3------------ B---3-0-----0-- G-------0-2---- D-------------- A-------------- E-------------- G Bm C x2 [G]Please be[Bm]ware the quiet front [C]yard I warned you [G]Before there were water skies [Bm]I warned you not to drive [C]Dry your eyes you poor devil G Bm C x2 [G]Are there really [Bm]ones like these [C]The ones I dream float like leaves And [G]freeze spread [Bm]skelton wings [C]I passed through before I knew you G Bm C x2 [G]I believe its [Bm]just because [C]Daddy's payday is not enough [G]Oh I believe its [Bm]all because [C]Daddy's payday is not enough G Bm C x2 [G]Just climb [Am]aboard [D7]The tracks of a train's arm [Ebdim 1&2] [Em]In my fragile family [Bm]tree [Bm Bbm Am] [Am]And watch me floating [D7]inches above The people under [Ebdim 1&2]me E-3------------ B---3-0-----0-- G-------0-2---- D-------------- A-------------- E-------------- G Bm C x4 [G]She's a jar [Bm]With a heavy lid [C]My pop quiz kid [C]A sleepy kisser [G]A pretty war [Bm]My feelings hid [Am]You know she begs me me not to hit her [C G] D7 Ebdim (1 & 2) - slide up |-2-| |-2-| |-5-| |-1-| |-1-| |-4-| |-2-| |-2-| |-5-| |-0-| |-1-| |-4-| |---| |---| |---| |---| |---| |---| Quote Link to post Share on other sites
barnyard pimp Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 this was also posted in one of the many threads as a correction to whats above:1..V.....^.....V.....^.....V.....^.....V.....^...... e-------------(3)------(3)(2)(3)(3)----------------| B--------------0--------0--0--0--0-----3-----------| G--------------0--------0--0--0--0--0--4-----4--4--| D--------------0-----------0--0--0-----4-----4--4--| A--------------------------------------2-----------| E--3-----------------------2-/3--3-----------------| 2..V.....^.....V.....^.....V.....^.....V.....^...... e--------------------------------------------------| B--------------1-----------------1-----------0--0--| G--------------0--------------0--0-----------0--0--| D--2-----------2--------1-/2-----2-----0-h2--0-----| A--3-----3-----------------------------------------| E--------------------------------------------------| Caveats! (1) I have a tendency to voice things alternately too thick and too thin (harmonics screw with me). I think I struck the right balance here but trust your ear. (2) I flip back and forth as to whether the ghost notes (the ones in parentheses) actually exist so I'll let you decide. (3) Of course you should finger the entire G, Bm, and C chords (to the extent possible) but pick just the notes listed. (4) This is only the first two bars of the intro, there might be some subtle variations (especially with voicing) in later iterations. [G] Just climb a[Am]board The [D]tracks of a [D#dim7]train's arm [Em]In my fragile family [Bm]tree [Bb] [Am] And watch me float inches a[D]bove The [D#dim7]people under me D#dim7 can be played: e--2-- B--1-- G--2-- D--1-- A----- E----- And if you want to be cool, you'll then slide up to this chord (which is also a D#dim7) e--5-- B--4-- G--5-- D--4-- A----- E----- Quote Link to post Share on other sites

anthony Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 In that '99 ACL video, they show JT playing this song pretty well - including that subtle G - Gb - G thingy he does. Speaking of SaJ, I would love to see JT play the harmonica more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
choo-choo-charlie Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Technically, since the song is in the key of G, it'd be an F# -- same difference. The above tabs are pretty good. Personally, I try not to get too concerned with playing every exact note correctly when covering Wilco tunes -- sometimes it's fun to put your own little licks in there!

Couldn't agree more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
