Biography:
Grizzly Bear is a rock band from Brooklyn, New York. Their music uses melody and ambience in conjunction with hazy-eyed choruses, whistles, piano, banjo, and several woodwind instruments.
Grizzly Bear was originally the solo project of Edward Droste (vocals/guitar), who recorded his debut album Horn of Plenty at home. The record was originally meant for his friends, but it eventually circulated and got a proper release in 2004, this time with the help of Christopher Bear (drums/vocals).

Palm mute E* switching between the 5th and 7th frets on the A string.
Easiest to use your pinky--listen for the rhythm.
[VERSE 1]
E* D*
While you wait for the others
F#m A D A A*
to make it all worthwhile
E* D*
All your useless pretensions
F#m A D A A*
are weighing on my time
E* D*
You could beg for forgiveness
F#m A D A A*
As long as you like
E* D*
Or just wait out the evening
E* Emaj7* B*
And always ask me why
E* Emaj7* B*
Yes you’ll only leave me dry
E
So I’ll ask you kindly to make your way

E* D*
While you wait on the answers
F#m A D A A*
That I’ll pretend to find

Keeping up with emotions
F#m A D A A*
Still occupies our time
E* D*
You could hope for substance
F#m A D A A*
As long as you like
E* D*
Or just wait out the evening
E* Emaj7* B*
And always ask me why
E* Emaj7* B*
Yes you’ll always ask me why
E
I’ll ask you kindly to make your way
