Elvis Costello Fan Forum

It pretty funny you post that up because I've never heard it before and I am possibly one of the biggest EC fans ever. (I own a signed EC guitar EVERY SINGLE EC song ever.) But yeah I posted a new guitar thread I need as much help as possible. By the way I am trying to work out a lot of songs right ...

Hey incase you haven't heard the song I have taken the liberty of posting it on my youtube channel, and I once again need some help with the chords, I already have the little guitar riff. Riff as follows e---------------------- B---------------------- G---------------------- D---------------------- ...

VERY NICE chords for that dude. Just incase your wondering the strumming pattern for that is a standard rock shuffle, two down strokes with one up, I figure this out from his video. Umm what version of Hidden Shame do you need, it'll be my first tab but I am very good for only playing for 6 months, ...

I think that from a lyrical stand point I would say that Shipbuilding might just be his best song or something off of ATUB like Poor Fractured Atlas, the reason Atlas is just such a beautiful song while being mysterious, it has character, it's playable, intelligent, emotion filled, and not to mentio...

I am curious to know what other people like, I've got every single song from him EVER and my favorites change all the time.

THANK FOR ALL YOUR HELP NEIL, YOU ARE AWESOME MAN, CHEERS!
Hey while were here and engaged have you ever heard I Can't Turn It Off ?
If you haven't heard it I would be glad to share it with others.

I have a copy of it but it seems to have fallen victim to it's own vintage so I was curious if anyone has a copy on their computer I could download off of them. Please and thank you, it would be so helpful.

Best Wishes,

Joel,

Thank a ton there mate. I can send you a copy of the song if your interested.

P.S. Yeah I've been fully aware of those chords but they are occasionally missing more... lesser known EC tunes.

Thank once again Neil, unfortunately there aren't any Black Sails In The Sunset chords to be found, I am especially keen on learning that one because I think the version on Costello & Nieve back in 98 was absolutely beautiful. Thanks for that also, unfortunately again and not to be the bearer of...

THANKS A MILLION, do you have trust chords by any chance. And holy shit that riff has some very odd chords.

Funny enough I am only 15, all this new music is terrible, Elvis is so under-rated and it's quite surprising. But yes if I could get the chords for the songs listed below I would be SO grateful, they'd be a perfect expansion to my song lexicon. London's Brilliant Parade (Because all the other tabs o...

Hey Neil thanks alot man!! I only wish there was such a thing as a Miss Macbeth chord set, I can imagine it now.

ALSO Neil thanks alot of that man, I have been looking everywhere for some good EC songs and chords and such (I've got EVERY SINGLE EC SONG you see) anywho I've looked all over the internet for some of these books but all I've came across is this new stuff they call music.

HOLY SHIT! They are pretty rare I understand but Jesus they are like 100$, Yeah if I could bother you for a few scans of some pages or such sent via email... well then I would be eternally grateful lol. You must've bought that back in the 90's lol.

There is a song book for Brutal Youth ? THAT'S AWESOME!! I wonder if there are song books for those hard to find EC songs, basically stuff like That Day Is Done and such.

Hey thanks alot for that starter I knew that it started off with a G but beyond that I was stumped, I even turned to the Bonaparte Room tracks for more insight... the Bonaparte is better than the original recording, the one on the album is too friendly sounding.

Best Regards,

Joel,

A great song off an underrated album, I have looked EVERYWHERE for chords to it but no one seems to have made one, is anyone up for the task ? PLEASE!

Cruel,

*Cough* Is everyone forgetting about the greatness of Spike, possibly his best album... that or ATUB is great.

I am trying to figure out the chords for the EC song 'Poison Moon'. I am sincerely stuck on a few chords, if anyone had insight of any kind please help.

Joel,

Thank you for those, although I already know how to play the entire song, I just really love the live version intro, sorry.

Here's the song

I have been trying really hard to figure out the intro to this version of Deep Dark Truthful Mirror, I was wondering if I could have some assistance because I am quite stuck and I love the sound of it, thus I would love to add it to my repertoire. Plus it's a free song of Elvis' If you watch and suc...
