Benji Cossa began writing and recording songs in 1995. Since then he’s amassed a treasure trove of undiscovered lo-fi AM gold, the latest of which is Benji Cossa and the Tightens, a 70s styled, country-pickled full band live-in-the-studio romp with a shit-hot all-star band. Think Sweetheart of the Rodeo / Tupelo Honey. Prior to that, in 2007 Serious Business Records issued Between the Blue and the Green, a small wonder of infinitely pleasing home-made pop. People will listen to Benji's music for their whole lives.
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!
--------------------------------------------------------- I tabbed it correctly, but it doesn't seem to line up quite right on this site. Just listen to the song, its pretty obvious
One of my favourite songs. Benji Cossa is fantastic.
E Woke up on a Sunday AE Dressed and had a shave E I Make myself up pretty B7 Like I’ll look right in my grave EAE Poured myself a nice cold (?) into my cup
EB7E There ‘aint no god in my Sunday, just a cherry on top
E Don’t have to work A I don’t even have to play EB7 I Don’t have to do nothin’ anybody says E Dead to the world AE And content with my girl
EB7E There ‘aint no god in my Sunday, just a cherry on top
AEAE Hallelujah and Ave Maria EAE Oh, she ‘aint my momma
EB7E There ‘aint no god in my Sunday, just a cherry on top
