live, from here
I'm back in New York.
The plane ride was typical. I listened to Cat Power albums, to see which songs had sounds I could reproduce on my guitar (limited skills, people. limited skills).
Instead of coming up with tabs, I unintentionally began rearraging the order of my favorite songs in my head.
Before I knew it, I had come up with a lyrical testament of the last 2 or so years of my life.
I'm linking to them simply because I desperately want to remember yesterday.
11 years of change.
11 years of going forward, backwards, forward again.
11 years of solitude.
So here is my Broadway musical, to the music of Chan Marshall, with a prologue by Jenny Lewis (i cheated).
Prologue:
Rise up with Fists
Act I:
Lived in Bars
He War
Act II
Could We
Back of Your Head
Half of You
Good Woman
Act III
Metal Heart
Empty Shell
Say
Act IV
Could We (reprise)
Keep on Runnin'
Living Proof
Epilogue
The Greatest

Hey, I found your site looking for Cat Power tabs to "Keep On Runnin'" (limited skills and all that). Just wanted to say that your musical sounds like it'd be a good tragicomedy.
