Biography:
Heartless Bastards is an American garage rock band formed in Ohio in 2003.
The bands' story starts in Dayton, Ohio, where Wennerstrom found the name on a multiple choice video trivia game at a bar.
As a songwriting teenager during a time when Guided by Voices and Brainiac were packing local bars and three of the Breeders were still in town, Wennerstrom used to sneak into clubs to check out the scene. "I would just see those people—my music heroes—hanging out at the bar like everyone else," she remembers.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is a great song and what really makes it great are the words sung with the
right strumming pattern. Just keep practicing and listening to the song or
watching Erika perform on YouTube.
There are three main chords:
E3 = E* B3 = B* A3 = A*
e x x x
b x x x
g 9 x x
d 6 9 7
a 7 6 6
E 0 7 4
Intro E*
VERSE
E* B*
My heart has drifted out into a place I cannot find
A*
And the days go by searching all the time
E*
Oh I was searching all, searching all the time
VERSE
E* B*
I looked into the eyes, the eyes of everyone I know
A*
And the days go by wondering where to go
E*
Oh I was searching all, searching all the time
BRIDGE
E* B*
I tell myself these bitter, these bitter days will end
A* E*
You gotta, you just gotta let them go, an just let go
CHORUS
E* B*
So, I stumble and I sway oh, into the room and I fade
A* E*
And I hope my darkest days are behind me
E* B*
I want to stay out here in the sun for a while
A* E*
I hope my darkest days are behind me
VERSE
Oh for way too long these things they occupy my mind
And the things that I, things I left behind
Oh, I was searching all, searching all the time
BRIDGE
Oh my my my these bitter, these bitter days will end
You gotta, you just gotta let them go, an just let go
CHORUS
So, I stumble and I sway oh into the room and I fade
And I hope my darkest days are behind me
I want to stay out here in the sun for a while
And I saw i saw the wide old world wide old way
E*
And I saw I saw the wide old world wide old way
So thats the gist. The strumming and timing is slightly different on each section
so you have to just listen to it very carefully until you get it. On live
versions Erika goes into a repeat of the chorus where she does some amazing
improvised vocal work. Let me know if you have anything to add. [email protected]
