Biografia:
A formação do grupo se deu em Minneapolis (terra também de Hüsker Dü e Soul Asylum) em 1979 quando Paul Westerberg (guitarra, vocal), Tommy Stinson (baixo), Bob Stinson (guitarra) e Chris Mars (bateria) se reuniram pela primeira vez no porão da casa dos irmãos Stinson. Reza a lenda que o primeiro show foi um desastre, uma verdadeira baderna, farra e bebedeira. A banda ainda usava o nome The Impediments e após a apresentação, o promotor daquele show sentenciou “Vocês nunca mais vão tocar nessa cidade de novo!”.

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!
Skyway
Capo 3rd fret
Tricky fingerpicking:
To get the feeling try playing the D chord and alternate the way you
play the last string between the 2nd fret (as in a D) and the open
string (D9). Do the same with the GM7 chord (alternate on the little
string between the second fret and the open string). I fingerpick the
whole song and it sounds ok.
For the D: easy to play for everybody...
1 E: 2 (alternate with open string (e))
2 B: 3
3 G: 2
4 D: 0
5 A: 0
6 E: X
For the GM7: hard to play for beginners...
1 E: 2 (alternate with open string (e))
2 B: 0
3 G: 0
4 D: 0
5 A: 2
6 E: 3
Skyway
(The Replacements)
[intro] D GM7 D GM7
D
You take the Skyway
GM7 D
High above the busy little one way
GM7 Em
In my stupid automn gloves at night a lie awake
A7
Wanderin' if I'll sleep
Em A7
Wanderin' if we'll meet out in the street
D
To take the Skyway
GM7 D
It don't move at all like a subway
GM7 Em
It's got bums when it's cold like any other place
A7
It's warm up inside
Em A7
Sittin' down and waitin' for a ride
GM7
Beneath the Skyway
Em C A7 GM7 (or G) Em C A7
D
Oh then one day
G D
I saw you walkin' down that little one way
GM7 D
Where the place I catch my ride most everyday
Em A7
They weren't a dawn thing I could do or say
GM7 D
Up in the Skyway
GM7 D GM7 D
