Biography:
Jay Bennett from Chicago (1963-2009) was a member of Titanic Love Affair since 1991, named after a Billy Bragg lyric. After that band's demise, Bennett was invited to join Wilco as a lead guitarist. He was instrumental (pun intended) in their critically acclaimed albums Being There, Mermaid Avenue Volumes 1 & 2 with Billy Bragg, Summerteeth, and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. He helped transform Wilco's sound with the addition of keyboards on Being There and later with his general studio wizardry on Summerteeth and YHF.

[Intro]
G Em D C G
[Verse 1]
G Em
The engines are idle and the trees are all bare
D C G
And the issues are clouded and hang in the air
G Em
The best part of the story is that part that you missed
D C G
Because you weren't too careful when opening this
[Chorus]
Am C D G
And your cries always sound like laughter, what am I to do?
Am C D C
And your lies weren't the biggest factor, but they had something to do
Em C D G
With the love that lasted a lifetime and you

[Verse 2]
G Em
There were cracks on the sidewalk where ever you stepped
D C G
There were crumbs in the bed where ever you slept
G Em
The best part of the record is the part where it skips
D C G
But you lost the lyrics when the jacket got ripped
[Chorus]
Am C D G
And your cries always sound like laughter, what am I to do?
Am C D C
And your lies weren't the biggest factor, but they had something to do
Em C D G
With the love that lasted a lifetime and you
[Verse 3]
G Em
In the end I suppose you sink or you swim
D C G
But you chances would be better if you weren't chained to him
G Em
Because it's ageless and timeless, but beauty must fade
D C G
And it looked so much better when the picture was made
[Chorus]
Am C D G
And your cries always sound like laughter, what am I to do?
Am C D C
And your lies weren't the biggest factor, but they had something to do
Em C D G
With the love that lasted a lifetime and you
Em C D G
With the love that lasted a lifetime and you
