Wilco - Sunken Treasure (live) This is the way Wilco has been playing Sunken Treasure at their live shows for a while now and also the way jeff plays it during his solo gigs. it's a lot different (and better) than the being there version and i've seen a lot of tabs for it that are all wrong. hopefully everyone will see that this is the way its played... simple. Dropped D Tuning with capo on the Second Fret - Key of E major (For standard tuning just capo the top 5 strings and let your low E ring open) Verse Riff: E--------------|----------------| B------3-----3-|--------3-----3-| G--------2-----|------0---2-----| D----0-----0---|------------0---| A--0-----------|--0^2-----------| D--0-----------|----------------| there's rows and rows of houses with the windows painted blue with the light from a tv running parallel to you but there is no sunken treasure rumored to be wrapped inside my ribs in a sea black with ink Chorus: I am so..

I have no idea how to signify timing, but i put slides between some notes. just breathe right through these ones without stopping. If you can play harp at all, you'll probably know how to make the right sound. He plays it a little different each time, but the main intro riff is pretty much like this. listen to the song to get the real rhythm and the way he warbles the notes Neil Young style at times. B= blow D= draw ~= tremelo (almost a whistle) /= slide 4B/5B/6B 5D~~ 5B 3B/4B/5D 5B/4B/3B/2B 4D 4B
