Marcy's Song by John Hawkes

[69jenniferlove]

this is the only time in the movie i understood why they were all there

[BridgettVonD]

Love this song. And the movie was beautiful... Does anyone know if it was written for the movie or if it already existed? Just curious... it's very fitting

[kjul67]

@BridgettVonD Thi is actually a cover of Jackson C. Frank. I have to say I really prefer the cover !

[cpsenxes]

I have a hard to remember the movie name...

[zeebee74]

anywhere i can download this for free?

[TaAl1990]

the fact that most people who said the film was shit put these 'XD' faces in their comments says that they were probably too brainless to watch the film in the first place... story was good, cinematography was awesome, acting was brilliant. also well done to Sean Durkin on on writing and directing his first ever film. if you've not seen it, I'd say deff give the film a chance!

[clarepies]

@TaAl1990 i didnt really get the whole cult thing, they all have sex with eachother, and he gets to rape the women, (leader guy) and its meant to be cleansing them or something? what was all that about?

[smithslover1]

@clarepies I got the cult thing, but the film was really unsatisfactory. I didn't expect it to be conclusive or anything, it just had much more to give...and didn't.

[6TheMorgan6]

@TaAl1990 the majority of the public (more specifically the American public) are too stupid to understand films like Martha Marcy May Marlene. They prefer to watch movies (action, rom coms, chick flicks ect.). It is sad that films like these are not fully appreciated. There is a difference between movies and books vs films and novels. Not many people are educated enough to enjoy the latter.

[clarepies]

@6TheMorgan6 i think it was just dull, its a film it has nothing to do with education.

[6TheMorgan6]

@clarepies fair enough, but this is a great film. It may appear dull to those who dont understand it.

[xoxdanielle18]

@6TheMorgan6 I agree with the statement fully. Most of my friends won't even good these types of films a chance. Same goes for music. There is radio crap and then artist music. Artistic music goes with film and novels, not at all appreciated.

[TheMarcyMae]

this is crazy lol my name is marcy mae.....weird! but loved the song!

[darlingestliz]

Love this movie and this song.

[clarepies]

i swear all the comments are basically saying, the movie was shit but this song is good. xD i agree though

[Theometricnews]

Tabs for the song:

Type in search bar Marcy's Song guitartabs (one word). First result. It's the John Hawkes version. You are welcome.

[SatanHersellf]

This movie disturbed the shit out of me but John Hawkes' cover of this song is epic.

[Moviedude041195]

This movie would be so much better if John Hawkes was in it more. He is such a terrific actor but he was waisted in this. If you have him, use him

[Lauuurah]

love this

[reezykeezy]

The movie was .... alright. It was good but terribly slow. Love the song though

[KatlinLuuvz]

I can´t stop listen to this song....

[MrMastermind1989]

@KatlinLuuvz O.K.

[MrRieYen]

I like this version better,

[kittysneak767]

chords: D minor, F, C, D the whole time

[kittysneak767]

@kittysneak767 ^all D's are minor^

[kittysneak767]

i don't know why but I want to see this film again

[peetamell4rk]

it's just absurd this song didn't get a golden globe nomination. john hawkes is stunning.

[lotrfan8]

@peetamell4rk Unfortunately, because it's a cover, it won't qualify for Best Original Song. But this is an amazing cover, and agree that John Hawkes is stunning.

[mmmmmbop93]

tabs?



[barrito101]

My god, what perfection for both the movie and song. Chills much?

[NYChica23]

@barrito101 Agreed...this song gives me serious chills ♥♥

[btamills]

I like the cover more than the original. I got goosebumps when i watched him sing the song in the movie.

Good job Mr. Hawkes

[laner657]

This is absolutely the perfect song for this movie! Marcy's song is dark and mysterious, yet, beautiful, but overall I needed more from the movie, although all the actors did a very good job, i just don't think the movie was all that it could be.

[IxLovexMusic72]

Wow the original Marcy's song was nothing special but this cover is amazing.

[Stigmatainmypants]

John Hawkes really deserves an Oscar. Guy is an incredibly underrated talent,. but it seems like he's finally starting to get some recognition and exposure. This really was a great scene!

[s4ujcd]

John Hawkes could be playing Charles Manson.

[Teeeeekay]

it's in drop D. intro is Dm with descending bass line f e d. verse is something like Dm7/F, C, Dm. then it goes to C with the hammer-on on the D string at the end of the verse. hope that helps. by the way this movie is amazing

[psbp753]

This is a Jackson C. Frank song.

[severjenny]

sickest movie, john hawkes is amazing; elizabeth olsen is hot.

obsessivefilmdisorderdotcom

[NJR1984]

Hawkes in a great and underrated actor and has a great voice too.

[9xxx9]

John Hawkes is the man!!! he could be a folk singer

[GDazza155]

Saw the film. Scene made my jaw drop open. Song is absolutely breathtaking.

[davidpitt9]

amen

[mcgrewvy12]

The scene where Patrick sings this is really one of the most deeply unsettling and penetrating scenes ever... Loved this film!

[anwyn24]

i need to play this, does anyone have any idea what the chords are?

[acarouselofantics]

Fantastic cover now that I've heard what the original sounds like.

[0worrywort0]

woah

[paintedbluestars]

this song is in the trailer for this movie which is playing in the theater I am working at. It gets stuck in my head and I sing the one section over and over again.

[imf1281]

This movie was really incredible. When John's character sings this song it's one of the most intense parts of the movie.

[MovieCrittics2]

oh dear jesus this song can go on any movie trailer

[MusicMasterNo1]

guitar chords?



[OrionSith]

[PeachesB91]

[MrQuantumPro]

very good

[510gavin]

this song by john hawkes has permanence, and offers us a glimpse into his artistic genius. powerful stuff.

[elphaba82]

I think this is gut punchingly haunting. John Hawkes really is an amazingly talented bloke. Does anyone no where or even if this available to download anywhere yet? This version that is, not the Jackson C. Frank one??

[cmichael4]

Jackson C. Frank's song. His version is much more haunting.

[christenbbb]

[KiddsView]

[cartergirl3of3]

@ThatMovieGuy55 yes, I heard that. At first I thought is was a chicken or something but then is said, " no, that's an infant..."

[tenola86]

I love this song. Is it weird that I have a crush on John Hawkes now??

[Zurcness]

@tenola86 Me too, lol, he's so cool...and weirdly hot..
