ISO: BBN and / or Art of Almost (acoustic)

[anthony]

Has anyone tried to figure out JT's recent solo acoustic arrangements of Art of Almost and Bull Black Nova? They seem like they would be pretty fun to test drive.

Here's my quick take on "Art of Almost"

I think you got it. I like to slide the 4 to 5 on the riff, but YMMV, of course. Splitting hairs.

Art of Almost - Wilco
JT Solo acoustic version 2013


Standard Tuning / No Capo

F#m
No, I froze, I can't be so
     A                 E
Far away from my wasteland

F#m
I'll never know when I might ambulance
             A                   E
Or hoist the horns with my own hands

F#m    [Riff]    E   [Riff]  F#m   [Riff]    E
Almost

F#m
I heard a faint olé, true love
                 A            E
But I had other ways to hurt myself, like calling
        F#m
I could open up my heart and fall in
         A               E
I could blame it all on dust

           F#m    [Riff]    E   [Riff]  F#m   [Riff]  E
The art of almost

  F#m
I hold it up, I shake the grail
      A               E
Dissipate across the waves, tomorrow
          F#m
I'll have all the love I could ever ache
          A                 E
And I'll leave almost with you

I had a pretty solid version of BBN for acoustic figured out about a year ago but after seeing Jeff play it I think does it in open G. Hopfully that's a good starting point for someone until I become less lazy and try to figure it out again.
