Banda norte-america de alternative-country, que se caracterizava, em seus primeiros trabalhos, pelos duetos entre os vocalistas Mark Olson e Gary Louris. Com Olson fora da banda desde 1995, boa parte do country foi deixado de lado em prol de composições mais próximas do powerpop. Uma das formações mais clássicas do grupo, com Mark Olson, Gary Louris, Marc Perlman, Karen Grotberg e Tim O’Reagan, se reuniu no final de 2010 para uma série de shows.
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!
Blue by The Jayhawks as seen on their 2012 performance on Sound Opinions via YouTube
This is an improvement on the chords and tab generously provided by Jason Simon ([email protected]) and Jeff Blackwell ([email protected]). I referenced The Jayhawks performance on "Sound Opinions" to make these tweaks. This version also includes the turnaround chord before the bridge (based on what I think I hear the piano doing), the counter-melody lyrics (in parentheses), the missing lyrics that got chopped off at the beginning of their submission and some minor tweaks to chord voicings. It's my first actual contribution here (though I've been using this site for years now so I hope you find it helpful.
