Cantor e compositor, Rufus McGarrigle Wainwright nasceu em Nova York, em 22 de julho de 1973, filho dos cantores e músicos folk Loudon Wainwright III e Kate McGarrigle. Os pais se separaram quando ele ainda era criança. Rufus começou a tocar piano aos 6 anos de idade e, aos 13, já fazia turnês com sua irmã Martha Wainwright, a mãe Kate e a tia Anna McGarrigle. Eles se apresentavam como as "Irmãs McGarrigle e família" (“McGarrigle Sisters and Family”).
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
____________________ / Rufus Wainwright / This song is about Rufus waking up the unforgettable day / 11:11 / of 9/11 where everything stood still. I think it's about / Want One / realizing that your life could suddenly end at any moment. /___________________/ This reminds you of appreciating the essential things and to remember to hold on them, in Rufus' case here his love.
Capo on 2nd fret. These chords are transcribed from the many acoustic versions on youtube. And since that's just Rufus alone, I didn't see any reason to transpose the song up accordingly. I suppose most of you readers are single guitarists (...you know what I mean :P). But if you want the chords in the actual key, Emajor, just mail me and I'll transpose it for you. The symbol "%" just means to stay on a chord (instead of writing it again).
Woke up this morning at 11:11 Wasn't in Portland and I wasn't in heaven Could have been either by the way I was feeling But I was alive, I was alive
Woke up this morning at 11:11 John was half-naked and Lulu was crying Over a baby that will never go crazy But I was alive
And kicking through this cruel world Holding a notion of you at 11:11 Tell me, what else can I do What else can I do?
Woke up this morning and something was burning Realized that everything really does happen in Manhattan Thoughts were of characters and afternoons lying And you, you were alive
Oh, the hours we are separate 11:11 is just precious time we've wasted So patch up your bleeding hearts And put away your poses I'm gonna have a drink Before we ring around the roses with you Oh, the hours we are separate Oh, the hours we are separate 11:11
