Misunderstood
Intro: Severely distorted and bent D and G chords with tape effects. I
feel its easier to bang real hard on a few D's and G's and step on and off
your distortion pedal. TUNE YOUR GUITAR DOWN A HALF A STEP!!!!!
Verse: There's no real chorus to the song, so...
D G D G D G D G D G ... see where this is going?
This continues for the whole song.
Lyrics:
Back in your old neighbourhood,
cigareetes taste so good,
so misunderstood,
you're so misunderstood.
There something there that you can't find,
honest when you're tellin' a lie,
you hurt her but you don't know why,
you love her but you don't know why.
Short and long term goals,
there's a party there and we oughta go to,
if you still love rock n roll,
if you still love rock n roll.
It's only a quarter to three,
reflecting off of your CD,
you're looking at a picture of me,
starin' at a picture of me.
Take the guitar player for a ride,
cause he ain't never been satisfied,
he feels he owes some kinda debt,
be years before he gets over it.
Fortune inside you're head,
all you touch turns to lead,
you think you might just crawl back in bed,
the fortune inside your head.
You know you're just a mamas boy,
positively unemployed,
so misunderstood,
so misunderstood.
( Bang real damn loud and yell )
Repeat: D D D D D D D D
( Make up two lines , cause I can't understand what the hell Tweedy says. )
So misunderstood,
so misunderstood.
so misunderstood
so misunderstood.
I'd like to thank you all, for nothin' at all - X 3
I'd ike to thank you all for nothin'
I'd like to thank you all for nothin, nothin , nothin at all
Repeat
Outro:

End on G.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official WILCO tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
