Noah and the Whale - 5 Years Time chords & lyrics

I caught some of Noah and the Whale's performance at Glastonbury, and thought they were a really interesting new band. I gather they also played Lollapalooza last month, so I'm guessing they've made a bunch of fans Stateside now.

Since then "Five Years Time" has been getting considerable airplay on radio, having been originally released in 2007, and re-released in 2008, hitting the UK top 10.

I've worked out my version of the chords and lyrics for the song ( very simple, three chords - C, F and G ) and I have posted these to my Rock guitar songs page at the link below:

Brendan Benson - Metarie chords and lyrics

Another requested song - and it surprised me somewhat that this is only the second Brendan Benson song I've attempted to work out. Multi-instrumentalist and Raconteur Brendan has been around for about 10 years, and has released seven albums ( 5 solo, and two with the Raconteurs, a band formed with White Stripe's Jack White in 2006 ).

I've enjoyed pretty much everthing of his I've heard, 'tho not all of it would have lent itself to working out straightforward chords, particularly for early learning guitarists, or for acoustic guitar players.

"Rock guitar songs - Metarie", which was released as an EP in 2003 can be played with fairly straightforward chords - Bm7, D, A, E and F#. There is a little riff on the E chord in the chorus involving moving the 4th finger along the 2nd, 3rd and 4th frets ( I named these E1, E2, E3, E4 rather than dig out the technically correct chord titles, as it basically comes under the heading "E riff"! ). A bit of a stretch on the poor pinky, but it's good exercise for that under-used digit!!

The chords for "Metarie" are now on my Rock Guitar Chords page at the link below:

Thanks to Jimmy in Sweden for the request - I think if you know the song, it will be a good one to add to your repertoire, it can sound really good once you've mastered the little chorus riff.

You can buy Brendan Benson music, and Raconteurs music, at CD Universe - Brendan Benson Music / Raconteurs Music page

REM - Supernatural Superserious chords and Lyrics

REM released "Accelerate", their 14th studio album, earlier this year. After the general disappointment of fans with its predecessor "Around the Sun", "Accelerate" marks a return to a more guitar-based sound. Which suits me just fine!

REM - Guitar Chords for 'Supernatural Superserious', the first single from the album is definitely reminiscent of earlier albums, I think it sounds as if it could have been on 'Monster'.

My chords and lyrics version of the song, suitable for either electric or acoustic guitar players is now on my chords and lyrics website, strangely enough, on the REM song chords page! I have quite a few of their songs, scroll down about halfway down the page. Check it out at the link below:

Lifehouse - You and Me chords

I'm really just cathing up with Lifehouse - hadn't really listened to any of their stuff since "Hanging in a Moment" back in 2001. Just started listening to "Who We Are", and hopefully will work out a song or two from that album presently.

Meanwhile, I have worked out my interpretation of the chords and lyrics for Lifehouse "You and Me", my favourite song from the eponymous "Lifehouse" album in 2004. You can check it out at the link below:

Wilco - Either Way Chords

Yet another band I keep promising to listen more too - Wilco, a kind of alternative country/indie band from Chicago. They've been around for quite a while ( first album released in 1995 ), but I'm listening to their later stuff and working my way back!

I've worked out my interpretation of "Either Way" from their new 2007 album "Sky Blue Sky" - a lovely song, one I really enjoy playing.

You can find my version of the song chords and lyrics for "Either Way" on my Rock Song chords page at the link below:

PJ's Guitar Chords and Lyrics - Rock Songs(E)

Find out more about Wilco on their official band website at http://www.wilcoworld.net

UPDATE 12 OCT 2009. This song, along with the other Wilco songs I've worked out, is now on my Wilco guitar chords and lyrics page. PJ


Enjoy your music!
