Wilco - Rising Red Lung
transcribed by: robertdanielmaher (at) gmail (com)
tuning: CGCFAD (drop C)
please note: chord names are the ACTUAL chords; not relative to chord shape
the picking pattern varies (so fool around!), but here is the basic pattern:
[Cadd9] [Am/C] [Cadd9] [Gmadd4]
[Cadd9] [Gmadd4] [Fadd4]
verse:
[Cadd9]saw a rising red [Am/C]lung
[Cadd9]glisten under the[Gmadd4] sun
[Cadd9]i wonder when it will[Gmadd4] pop
Fadd4 (only one bar)
in the snow
[Cadd9]the melody?s a mi[Am/C]stake
[Cadd9]an embrace at the[Gmadd4] wake
[Cadd9]how long does it[Gmadd4] take
for us to [Fadd4]know
[Cadd9]i want a wig that?s been [Am/C]blown
[Cadd9]by something u[Gmadd4]nknown
[Cadd9]buried under a[Gmadd4] mile
of [Fadd4]snow
[Cadd9]found a fix for the [Am/C]fits
[Cadd9]come listen to[Gmadd4] this
[Cadd9]as intimate as a[Gmadd4] kiss
over a [Fadd4]phone
and it g[Dm9]oes?
instrumental:
[Dm9]
C Dm9 Gmadd9 (let ring)
(important note: i think this is what Jeff Tweedy is actually playing during the
instrumental, but I suggest picking or strumming the chords if playing alone...i will note the
chord shapes at the bottom)
verse:
[Cadd9]found a fix for the [Am/C]fits
[Cadd9]come listen to[Gmadd4] this
[Cadd9]it?s buried under the[Gmadd4] hiss
Fadd4 (only one bar)
and It glows
[Cadd9]like a powerful [Am/C]smile
[Cadd9]a car radio[Gmadd4] dial
[Cadd9]as intimate as a[Gmadd4] kiss
over a [Fadd4]phone
and it g[Dm9]oes?
