Grandaddy are an American indie pop band formed in Modesto, California in 1992 by singer/guitarist/keyboardist Jason Lytle, bassist Kevin Garcia, and drummer Aaron Burtch; although a noisy, lo-fi approach characterized early recordings like 1994's Complex Party Come Along Theories, with the 1995 additions of guitarist Jim Fairchild and keyboardist Tim Dryden the group's sound expanded exponentially over the course of subsequent efforts including the unreleased Don't Sock the Tryer and the 1996 EP A Pretty Mess by This One Band.

Bridge(?): AmajEmaj
EmajD Shacked up at Modesto Inn CB And all of a sudden your mom crashed in CAD And she said: "No, she's not the one for you" BC Yeah, your mom, she always hated me AD Grab your keys, your clothes, your shoes BF Jeez Louise you should have avoided me

EmajD Then one day they took you away CB And all of a sudden your mom called me CAD And she said: "No, she's not the one for you" BC Yeah, your mom, she always hated me AD So just leave her broken, please BF Jeez Louise you should have avoided me
