Chords for Couldn't You Wait? : Deleted Quotes- Greg Anderson/Jeff Tweedy

[C] _ Look out, look _ _ out.
[F] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ [C] The [N] tour we did with Socorrom was so fucking grueling.
It was just ridiculous.
And we didn't have very many releases out.
And we hadn't done a lot of touring.
At least Engine Kid hadn't.
And I don't know where Socorrom was at that point.
But we're talking about playing to like 10, 15 people a
show, playing Milwaukee and stuff.
But they always kind of kept things on track.
I remember in Florida, I was so bummed out.
My amp had broken.
And the van we were in was not operating very well.
And I wanted to fucking go home.
I was so over it.
I wanted to go home.
And those guys set me aside and totally talked me through
it and put me right back on track.
And they were like, they're like these cheerleaders for us.
And like, you can't quit, man.
What are you talking about, man?
You can't go home, man.
What are we going to do without you guys?
They turned us on to so many different cool music and food
and all kinds of stuff.
I remember trying _ Mole in Texas with Kim.
He's like, you've got to try this.
It looks horrible.
It looks like shit.
But you've got to try it.
And just like every day, there'd be something new.
I remember one day, I was in their van hanging out.
And they were playing this music that I really wasn't
familiar with until I heard _ Freebird.
And I'm like, what is this band?
They're like, this is Lynyrd Skynyrd.
And I'm like, oh, OK.
And so they turned us on to Lynyrd Skynyrd.
I'd never heard them at the time.
We lost our drummer at one point.
_ And Michael stepped in for us.
And we recorded a Christmas single, actually,
for CZ Records.
We did Little Drummer Boy.
And I think Silkworm did a track called In the Bleak
Midwinter or something like that.
And Michael filled in for us.
It was so killer playing with him.
And I was actually hoping that there was some way that he
could be in both bands.
But it wasn't to be, of course.
That was kind of the thing.
We were just always looking out for each other, which was
funny, it's like nowadays, it's just rare, I think, in a
lot of ways.
At least for me and what I've been involved in the last 10
years, it's like there's not really a band that any band
that I've been in is kind of connected with is like a
brother band and somebody who would loan you a van or loan
you a drummer or loan you whatever gear,
whatever you needed.
And that was really a special thing about Silkworm.
And I bet you we weren't the only band that
they did that with.
They were just really generous and always helpful. _ _ _
_ You would think that there would be very, very different
experiences for a band like Silkworm and a band like Uncle
Tupelo, considering how far apart we were stylistically,
at least in the minds of most of the people that were
listening to college rock and independent
music at that time.
But we really traveled probably the same route.
There were clubs in most college towns that we probably
shared the stage with them.
Not with them on the same night, but we played almost
all the same places, I'm sure.
_ And probably slept on a lot of the same floors.
There was a lot more organic, word of mouth type of exposure
that I don't think exists today.
I don't think, I mean, it does, [E] but it's in the digital realm.
It's in cyberspace.
It's a whole other thing.
And people just don't seem to have to work as hard to like
_ _ really have their taste made for them.
_ _ Back in the day, you really kind of had to figure out for
yourself if you liked Silkworm or Uncle Tupelo.
And a lot of people would probably go to see both [D#] and
decide they hated one of us.
_ [B] But _ I imagine most people watching this movie would
probably have hated us.
But that's just the way it would go back then.
Even though the amount of time we've actually spent together
has been extremely limited over the years, I've always
felt a really close bond with [D] those guys. _
