The Indigo Girls are Amy Ray and Emily Saliers. They met on the playground in grammar school in Decatur, Georgia, USA, and have been playing together since high school.
Their first release in 1985 was a seven-inch single named "Crazy Game", with the B-side "Everybody's Waiting (for Someone to Come Home)". That same year, the Indigo Girls released a six-track Extended play album named "Indigo Girls", and in 1987 released their first full-length album, Strange Fire, recorded at John Keane Studio in Athens, Georgia, and including "Crazy Game".
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!
THE WOOD SONG (Emily Saliers) ----------------------------- [Thanks to Chris Knestrick ([email protected]) for the start.] [The D5-G-C-D5 part is probably totally wrong; forgive me.]
GGA7sus4A7sus4 The thin horizon of a plan is almost clear C(9)DG My friends and I have had a tough time GGA7sus4A7sus4 We're losing our brains, hard up against change C(9)DGG All the old dogs and the magician
Now I see we're in the boat in two by two's Only the heart we have for a tool we can use And the very close quarters are hard to get used to Love weighs the hull down with it's weight
GGA7sus4A7sus4 But the wood is tired, and the wood is old C(9)DGG And we'll make it fine, if the weather holds GGA7sus4A7sus4 But if the weather holds, we'll have missed the point C(9)DG(9) - GC - D5D5 - GC - D5 That's where I need to go
No way construction of this tricky plan Was built by other than a greater hand With a love that passes all our understading Watching closely over the journey
Yeah, but what it takes to croos the great divide Seems all the courage I can muster up inside But we get to have some answers when we reach the other side The prize is always worth the rocky ride
But the wood is tired, and the wood is old And we'll make it fine, if the weather holds But if the weather holds then we'll have missed the point C(9)DEmB7EE That's where I need to go
AABm7(4) Bm7(4) Sometimes I ask to sneak a closer look EEsus4AA Skip to the final chapter of the book AABm7(4) Bm7(4) And then maybe steer us clear from some of the pain that it took EEsus4CCDD To get us where we are this far, this far
(G) But the question drowns in its futility And even I have got to laugh at me Because no on gets to miss the storm of what will be Just holding on for the ride
And the wood is tired, and the wood is old And we'll make it fine if the weather holds But if the weather holds then we'll have missed the point That's where I need to go
