Wilco - You and I

Capo III

C...Am...C...Am


C.........Am
you and I

C.................Am
we might be strangers

C............F....................Em
however close we get sometimes

.................C
it's like we never met

F................G
but you and I

F.....................G
I think we can take it

F........Em
all the good with the bad

Am..............................F
make something that no one else has but

C..........F
you and I

C...........F
you and I

me and you
what can we do
when the words we use sometimes
are misconstrued
well I won't guess
what's coming next
I can't ever tell you
the deepest well I've ever fallen into

F
oh I don't wanna know

Em
oh I don't wanna know

F
oh I don't need to know

G
everything about you

F
oh I don't wanna know

Am.......Bb...............Am
and you don't need to know

F.........................G
that much about me

you and I
we might be strangers
however close we get sometimes
it's like we never met
but you and I
I think we can take it
all the good with the bad
make something that no one else has
you and I
you and I
you and I
you and I
you and I
you and I
you and I
you and I

  2. I've been using an Am9 instead of Am and it sounds real good

  3. Very close with this new one, but just a couple suggestions...

    In the first verse, I'm not sure what the C- is for... the dash usually represents a minor chord and there's definitely no minor chord there.

    In the second verse, at "misconstrued", it's just an Am - no seven.

    And at the end of the bridge, "that much about me", it's an F rather than Dm.

    Other than that great job.
