Came up with this in about 5 minutes from the NPR video. Awesome new song from Jeff, some of his best lyrics ever I feel.

Feel free to correct/comment/whatever.

 

Thanks!

I just saw the video from a  prairie home companion and it doesn't look too hard. Its actually almost identical to his acoustic version of Cant Stand It.
