Wilco - Sky Blue Sky Lyrics






Oh, the band marched on in formation
The brass was phasing tunes I couldn't place
Windows open and raining in
Maroon, yellow, blue, gold and gray

The drunks were ricocheting
The old buildings downtown
Empty so long ago
Windows broken and dreaming
So happy to leave what was my home

With a sky blue sky
This rotten time
Wouldn't seem so bad to me now
Oh, I didn't die
I should be satisfied
I survived
That's good enough for now

With a sky blue sky
This rotten time
Wouldn't seem so bad to me now
Oh, if I didn't die
I should be satisfied
I survived
That's good enough for now

    Every time I listen to this album, it's better than the last time I heard it.

  2. M.... J....

    Muito bom! <3

  3. A.... P....

    Descubrí esta banda por una referencia de Karl Ove Knausgard, el novelista noruego. Qué maravilla esos puentes! De la literatura a la música y viceversa. Salud! Victoria

  4. S.... S....

    Very relaxing. This song has that Neil Young 'Harvest Moon' feel. These guys are really good and have a unique sound. Thumbs up for this band ....no doubt.

  5. M.... M....

    This seems like an appropriate post apocalyptic song.


    Oh the band marched on in formation
    The brass was phasing tunes I couldn't place
    Windows open and raining in a room yellow, blue, gold and gray
    The drunks were ricocheting
    The old buildings downtown empty so long ago
    Windows broken and dreaming
    So happy to leave what was a home
    With the sky blue sky, this ride in time wouldn't seem so bad to me now
    Oh, I didn't die; I should be satisfied I survived
    It's good enough for now
    With the sky blue sky, this ride in time wouldn't seem so bad to me now
    Oh, if I didn't die, I should be satisfied I survived
    It's good enough for now

  10. R.... S....

    heard this song from a streaming japan radio station few hours ago while working.the overall song is beautiful,but the lead guitar with that thick warm reverb pushed me to light my cigar.

  11. R.... G....

    This sounds a lot like "Far Far Away." As if it were a rare B-side version of it...

  12. K.... T....

    "I didn't die, I should be satisfied" Seems like the opposite for me.

  13. J.... O....

    Tweedy you damn genius

  14. J.... C....

    28/12/2017: this one’s for Chad and the Sky Blue Sky sandwich shop on Bloor; its been a long year and a pity that it took you with it. Nothing of your own fault, there’s been a scourge on Bloor st, uprooting everything with the slightest of doubts. I’m not entirely sure how it is I managed to cling on. I’ll miss you knowing its me when you saw the King Pin order with extra onions, the sun basting those windows in the last of afternoon light. The windows have sat empty for a while now, and I’ve stopped looking. Thanks for recommending My Morning Jacket, they’re alright. Good luck, good bye.

    M.... B....

    ah, another toronto native. i hadn't been to sky blue sky for a long time and then it closed. it was good though, i know that.

  16. l.... l....

  17. M.... ....

    What is this song about?

    M.... ....

    Nostalgia

    M.... ....

    The first part feels like something a soldier would sing postwar

    M.... ....

    What is it about to you?

    M.... ....
