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!

WALK AWAY (Amy Ray) ------------------- [Each chord, or chords joined by hyphens, is two fast 2/2 measures or one slow 4/4 measure, depending on how you look at it.] [The E's have some Esus4's in them, and the A's have Asus9's.] [B(4) is x24440.] [At the end of the second E in each E Bm7 A E series, play a riff that goes 0-1-2 on the D string, then open G string.] [Credit for most of the guitar solo tablature goes to Scot Ninneman ([email protected]).]
EBm7AEEBm7AE [intro]
EBm7 We used to walk in each other's arms, AE It was one on one, that's what you said EBm7 Now the moon is a sliver in our eye AE And we stumble bleeding on this broken glass
C#mB There was too much repetition (over and over and over again) C#mB You know I passed the point of sane (over and over and over again) C#mB But all this broken glass you left behind AB(4) Won't let you make a clean, clean
EBm7AE Walk away
Now we're crossing from this sacred ground Where we once held each other, and each other's names When the words are sparse, and we feel we're so profound But babe, you know all I feel honey, I feel so ashamed
Ah, hah, yes there was, there was too much repetition Oh, you know you know you know, you know I'm past the point of sane Ah, ho, woh, and all this broken glass we left behind Won't let us make a clean, clean
I said walk away, oh yeah, walk away Oh no, walk away, baby baby, walk away, oh lord
I said walk away, ah yeah, walk away Ah no, walk away, baby baby, walk away
GD There was a time when we gave everything AE And it was true, babe, true enough to bleed (true enough to bleed, baby) GD But now you feel that you've got nothing left AB(4) Well if there's nothing to lose babe, oh baby, don't you know by now
EBm7 Then there's nothing to gain, oh no, walk away AE Oh no, walk away, oh baby baby, walk away
You know I'd still hold you if I could It's hard not to try and change, try to change your mind Well I'm a pillar of salt and I want you to understand, babe 'Cause honey, this is the last time, it's the last time I'll ever look behind
Oh yeah, walk away Oh no, walk away, baby baby, walk away, all right, let's go
EBm7AEEBm7AEEBm7AB(4) [guitar solo; see tab at end.]
Oh, I said walk away, oh yeah, walk away Oh no, walk away, baby baby, walk away
Oh no, I said walk away, walk away, I said close your eyes (Don't you know we used to walk in each other's arms) Walk away, baby baby, try to listen to me, I want to tell you (It was one on one (?), that's waht you said to me baby, yeah)
Now walk away, oh yeah, walk away, gotta learn to look inside (Now the moon is a sliver in our eyes) Walk away, baby baby, baby baby, baby baby (We stumble, walking on broken glass, oh)
I said walk away, c'mon baby, walk away, I said listen to me Walk away, baby baby, listen, I want to tell you
EBm7 Now walk away, oh yeah, walk away AB7sus4E. Oh no, walk away, oh baby, I said you got to know by now
