Biography:
The story of Big Scary begins in 2006, when Melbourne duo Tom Iansek (#1 Dads) and Jo Syme, armed with just acoustic guitars and egg shakers, started playing songs together in the living room of Jo’s parents’ house. After a bit of a break, the two reconvened in 2008, this time with more instruments—electric guitars, drums, piano, mandolins and ukuleles—and a bolder, more expansive vision. What began as a few rainy day acoustic ballads in their first incarnation soon grew into an all-encompassing, genre-defying sound.

D F#m D F#m G
Stay awake, cause life's like a blink of the eye
D F#m D F#m G
Breathe in...I feel the weight as the words they tumble down
(Play chords from here on)
D Bm G
Brace yourself your life's about to change, how you don't even know
D Bm G
But change is hard to deal with when all I feel is how I miss you now
Bm A G
As you sit there crying on the phone
D Bm G
It's funny how a goodbye is the only way to really say I love you.
D
And love that's shared is love that's spared
Bm G
from every inch of soil between us now.
Bm A G
Places a time when I don't know how
D G
Oh the simplicity to piece together all I've been shown
D G
But I don't know how it feels to have every piece of me crying to go home
D G
Oh that feel went away and the pleasure falling asleep next to you
D G
And the weight of the crime when we know that we do not know what to do
Bm A G
As you sit there crying on the phone
Bm A G
As you sit there wishing yourself home
