Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings – The way it will be (Live @ Jills veranda)

Countrystjärnorna Gillian Welch och Dave Rawlings spelade låten ”The way it will be” i Jills veranda.

From a Swedish tv show called “Jills Veranda” in which they invite Swedish artists to Nashville to discover country music. The blond lady is Veronica Maggio and she’s actually one of Sweden’s biggest pop stars and has been so for years.

This intimate café performance is nothing short of breathtaking. The flawless unison singing between these two skilled professionals highlights a deep bond of love, unity, and mutual respect. Their exceptional vocal harmony transforms the performance into a masterclass of musical connection, compelling enough to make even an immortal stop, blush, and listen with captivated attention. It’s more than just a display of talent; it’s a poignant celebration of the profound connections that music can forge between artists.

Lyrics

I lost you awhile ago
But still, I don’t know why
I can’t say your name
Without a crow flying by
Gotta watch my back now
That you turned me around
Got me walking backwards
Into my hometown
Throw me a rope
On the rolling tide
What did you want me to be?
You said it’s him or me
The way you made it
That’s the way it will be
It was seven years on the burning shore
With gatling guns and paint
Working the lowlands door-to-door
Like a Latter Day Saint
Then you turn me out
At the top of the stairs
You took all the glory
That you just couldn’t share
I’ve never been so disabused
Never been so mad
I’ve never been served anything
That tasted so bad
You might need a friend
Any day now, any day
Oh my brother, be careful
You are drifting away
Throw me a rope
On the rolling tide
What did you want me to be?
You said it’s him or me
The way you made it
That’s the way it will be
The way you made it
That’s the way it will be
