By Chris Moore:
There’s lots of good stuff happening here at guitarbucketlist.com! I’ve been spurred on by Jim and Jeff’s recent plans for releases and by all of Jim’s tireless work designing the website, so I have a couple “extra’s” for you today.
First of all, I posted my review of Ringo’s Liverpool 8 album a half hour ago. (Another goal of mine this year is to write at least brief reviews of all the new albums I buy this year.) In the coming days and weeks, you can look for reviews of both Sheryl Crow’s and Jack Johnson’s new albums that came out today.
In addition to the CD review, I have also posted a second “Behind the Scenes” video. I had the idea to make this short film when I was recording the session for Warren Zevon’s “Excitable Boy.” It’s really cheesy, but it was easy and fun to make, and I wanted to share it with you all.
Finally, of course, I have posted my second song from one of my absolute favorite artists, Warren Zevon. You may know him for “Werewolves of London,” but he has written so much more! This is one of his more well-known songs and I hope you enjoy it. It’s somewhat disturbing, but if you think about the overall idea of the song, it’s actually an interesting statement from Zevon.
I hope you enjoy all the new posts to be found on the site today, and you can look forward to all-new material from Jeff and Jim in the days to come as “a session-a-day keeps the viewers…um, coming back to guitarbucketlist.com” continues!

“Wilted Rose”
The Vanity Project
Intro: Am F G C – G – Am F G Em
Am F G C – G – Am F G Em
I almost cried on the day my country died; I almost tried to care.
They built a wall to protect them from us all; we should have left them there.
Am – G – C Dm G Am – G – C Dm E
Rev o lution is the first to go; the rest is forced to stay…
A D E F#m Bm D E
Shall I cast this out, this wilted rose? Yeah, yeah, yeah — no, no, no.
Like Pierre Trudeau’s walk out in the snow, can it be time to leave?
I spent my youth thinking people spoke the truth; now it’s hard to think.
Was I naive to say I do believe that none of us should sink?
They sold us out, and they sold us short. And we’re the ones who’ll have to pay…
Shall I cast this out, this wilted rose? Yeah, yeah, yeah — no, no, no.
Like Pierre Trudeau’s walk out in the snow, can it be time to leave?
E Am F G C G Am F G Em
Don’t go; you know, it’s all the same to me these days, I swear it’s hard to care.
SOLO: over intro chords
Revolution is the first to go; the rest is forced to stay…
Shall I cast this out, this wilted rose? Yeah, yeah, yeah — no, no, no.
Like Pierre Trudeau’s walk out in the snow, can it be time to leave?
Shall I cast this out, this wilted rose? Yeah, yeah, yeah — no, no, no.
Like Pierre Trudeau’s walk out in the snow, can it be time to leave?
Don’t go; you know, it’s all the same to me these days, I swear it’s hard to care.

“Canceled Check”
Beck
B D A E A B
I hate to do this, but you’re a pain in the neck.
I thought you knew this; you handed me a canceled check.
You’re so helpless; your girlfriends think you’re a saint.
B D A E A D
I’ll give you a quarter; I’ll keep my judgments to myself…
D F#
And I get caught up in the moonlight,
F# B B7
Reaching out for a rotten egg — I don’t wanna beg —
B7 G F# B
It’s crystal clear your time is nearly gone.
Count your blessings, and do the things that you should.
Oh, the has-beens that never had it so good…
Stormy weather, the kids are making a racket
In the wilderness, the wild lives are so mild…
And I get caught up in the moonlight,
Reaching out for a rotten egg — I don’t wanna beg —
It’s crystal clear your time is nearly gone.
SOLO (over verse chords)
And I get caught up in the moonlight,
Reaching out for a rotten egg — I don’t wanna beg —
It’s crystal clear your time is nearly gone.
