Mountain Goats tab request thread!

November 10, 2007 10:36AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
I'm so excited to hear that the tabs for that version of the cow song. Thanks so much and be sure to post it asap!

Still hoping for "The Cow Song".

Tried playing "Alibi" (on my keyboard) with the chords in question. It seemed almost right, but not quite.

Ah, and may as well request Aesop Rock's "Coffee". At least John's part.

I'm having too much trouble making out the guitar in that video. There are some chords for the Cow Song on the wiki already, but they don't sound right.
Gonna have my bandmate take a crack at it next time he's over.

I just thought I'd point out that I put "Counting Song for Bitter Children" up on the wiki. Thanks to vieurd for the chords.

Link's broken. Here it is again, but I think the URL is so long that it puts a space between "child" and "ren".
November 22, 2007 10:09AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
oops. Oh well, that'll get you to the main page anyway. You can find it from there.

Where did he find a complete version of Counting Song For Bitter Children? All I have is a 10 second or so performance of it.
November 22, 2007 06:30PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
John recorded it and posted it in the tMG phrases thread
That link is dead, I think, but in the spirit of good will, it being Thanksgiving and all, I have reupped it.

Could someone help me out with "Cold Milk Bottle"? I know it's on themountaingoats.net page, but a) it doesn't sound right to me, and b) I have no idea what "Dis" means. (I recognize it's a D chord but what's the "is"?).

I just play a little ukulele at the moment, so I'm just looking for basic chords. Thanks!
November 27, 2007 01:30PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
Dis is the German writing for D# (half-tone up gets an ~is, half-tone down gets an ~es).

Hope that helps.

Soft Targets, anyone?

First, thanks a ton for reposting that!

Another confusing European music thing for us Americans that I just figured out today is that B and H are interchangable. I never understood why people were posting an H chord, it was the most baffling thing for so long.

Lastly, I totally figured out Soft Targets the other day, if I can remember how to play it I'll post it tomorrow.

Not exactly: German/Scandinavian/maybe someplace else H is international B, while German B is Bb or A# internationally.

Lost: one tab for Please Come Home to Hamngatan
Last seen on Ghana.
Answers to "Awesome"

Does anyone have any leads?

Yeah, my bad, I never got around to some in this thread though I promised to.

Please Come Home To Hamngatan is fairly simple. I'll put up the tab now..

I'll try and look over the ones that haven't been completed. Not sure if everyone knows how to do this, but it would be easy to fill requests if people made pages for them on the wiki and left the pages as red non-made pages. It's just hard when some of the ones we already have are in bad shape.
December 03, 2007 04:48PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
Thanks, Howard. Hamngatan didn't sound too complex, but I'm at work (and it's a lot easier to just ask somebody else to do it). Keep up the good work.

Ah... totally forgot about Soft Targets.
I'll do it tomorrow if it isn't done by then.
December 03, 2007 11:16PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
anyone up to the task of figuring out the oh so difficult mountain goats song aptly titled "the garden song"?
December 04, 2007 12:51AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
Can tackle Garden Song tomorrow if I remember..shouldn't be too bad. Will put up Soft Targets as well if needed.
December 04, 2007 04:38AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
EVERYTHING is needed, howard.
December 04, 2007 04:58AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
Anyone who could help me out with 1 Corinthians 13:8-10 would be my new god for the week winking smiley
December 05, 2007 12:36AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
The last one I'm dying to play at a show is "Million". Anyone know that one?
December 05, 2007 01:27AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
Will do those last two tomorrow.

Garden Song & Soft Targets up thumbs down
