WILCO
"I'LL FIGHT" from WILCO (the album)
I got the original chord arrangement from a post already on the site. Thank you for
post. From there, I tabbed out the intro based on that arrangement. I have provided two
of the intro; a simple arrangement and a complex arrangement. The simple one is note
note what is played on the record where as the complex arrangement adds slaps (x) as well
possible extra notes (in other words, the way I play it on solo guitar as inspired by
masterful fingerstyle technique). With my intro and the original post attached, I hope
who stumbles upon this may find it easy enough to learn. Enjoy this wonderful song!
Capo on the 3rd fret (Notes provided are in relation to the capo)

I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go for you
I'll fight, I'll fight, I'll fight, I'll fight for you
I'll kill, I'll kill, I'll kill, I'll kill for you
I will, I will, I will
I'll go,I'll go, I'll go, I'll go for you
I'll fight, I'll fight, I'll fight, I'll fight for you
I'll die, I'll die, I'll die, I'll die for you
I will, I will, I will
And if I die
I'll die, I'll die alone on some
Old private hill
Abandoned by the mill
All my blood will
Spring and spill
I'll crash the air
and be still
You'll wait
With the star from a dream
And know that I am gone
You'll feel it in your heart
But not for very long
You'll rise each day as planned
Your will is your command
And stand each Sunday
A hymnal steady in your hand
You'll sing to yourself
The rising-falling melody
That you could never read
Without the choirs' lead
Still alone, and lost in deep
And your soul will not be free
I will go , I will go, I will go
And in wars waters
I will wade
And I will know
If I remorse or regret
The fairness of our trade
For you to live
I took your place
A deal was made
And I was paid
And the goldness
I was told
Was a place
Where my body could be laid
And we will steal your life
And I own
In better homes surrounded
By your peers
Without suffering or fear
Grandchildren far and near
And none will shed a tear
For the love no longer here
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go for you
I will
I'll fight, I'll fight,I'll fight, I'll fight for you
I will, I will, I will
I'll kill, I'll kill, I'll kill, I'll kill for you
I will
I'll die, I'll die, I'll die, I'll die for you
I will, I will, I will
And if I die
I'll die
I'll die alone like Jesus
On a cross
My faith cannot by tossed
And my life will not be lost
If my love comes across
