Ashes of American Flags
by Wilco
/////////

Transcribed by Chad El-Zayaty

I don't think it gets any better than this album. There are some
tricky chords and I'm not sure what they're called so I gave them names
(probably erroneously).


F#dim7th   xx121x  <-- sounds much cooler than a regular F#maj
E minorEm      xx2453  <-- use only during chorus, not during the verse
Em/maj7th  xx2443
A/C#A/C#     x4222x

Intro:

e |----------------------------
BB |----------------------------
G+G |----------------------------
D MajorD |--0---------------------2---
A augmentedA |------0-------------2-------
E MajorE |-----------2----3-----------


Jay Bennett's guitar riff in background:
e|------5--------------
BB|----------8b~~~~~----  <-- bend like crazy
G+G|---------------------
D MajorD|-7-------------------
A augmentedA|---------------------
E MajorE|---------------------


D MajorD        G+G
the cash...   is blue...
D MajorD        G+G
for a hundred.. and a small...

E minorEm        A augmentedA
i could spend... and sixty...
D MajorD        G+G
on diet...    and unlit...

D MajorD  G+G  D MajorD  G+G

E minorEm      A augmentedA
i wonder ... when nobody ...
D MajorD      G+G
how hot ... this machine ...


Chorus:

F#dim7F#dim7    G+G        B minorBm
    all my lies...     wishes.
E minorEm   Em/maj7    A/C#A/C#      D MajorD
    i know i would die...  back new.


The rest of the song follows this pattern.
Any corrections/comments are welcome.
