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!
This is a really great song off the Indigo Girls’ 2009 album, Poseidon and the Bitter Bug, but it’s one that’s often neglected – this is obvious, as I couldn’t find a single table anywhere online. So I figured out the chords as best I could. The chords themselves aren’t that hard, but Amy varies some of the orders of the chords in a seemingly random way that makes it a little difficult to master. Hope you enjoy the chords – email me at [email protected] if you have any corrections/comments/suggestions. :)

Capo 2
C Baby, I got the best intentions, FE But I just can't do it Am Baby, I got the truest aim G But I just can't win
C Baby, I got a good vibration, E But I just can't play it Am Baby, I spent my only fortune, Fm On the wages of sin
CE So you, you gotta be extra forgiving AmF And you gotta be super strong CE You gotta be a true romantic Am I want you to look the other way F When everything goes wrong
C Baby if you took all the good stuff F And put it all together E And you took all the bad stuff F And you threw it all away C Would I still be the girl E That suited your fancy? Am Would I still be the boy F That rocked your world?
CEAmFm (Amy yells for a bit)
C If you get lonely E For the trouble and the chaos Am If you get bored F Since you walked away C Remember what I told you E When the night was darkest Am You can leave me all you need to F Baby, I'm here to stay
CE And baby, I'm gonna be extra forgiving AmF And I'm gonna be super strong CE 'Cause baby, I'm, I'm a true romantic Am I'm gonna look the other way F When everything goes wrong
