Cass McCombs (born in Concord, California in 1977) is an American singer-songwriter and performer.
An enigmatic folk nomad, McCombs is a quintessentially American artist; "he's quietly become one of (the country's) finest chroniclers of fringe characters, a writer of heart-rending love songs and psychedelic odes to the natural world, a teller of tall-tales with a sense of humor dry as desert wood, and that rare folksinger who actually sings about the folk.
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!

Capo II, with all chords relative.
Chord Shapes, from top string to bottom: A -------- X02220 Aadd9 ---- X02200 C -------- X32010 G6 ------- 32000X or 320000 (I prefer the former) Em ------- 022000 Bm ------- X24432 F -------- 133211 or X3321X
If you listen to the song, you can pretty much get rhythm. It's not too complicated. He hammers off of the A's to transition to the Aadd9's, which are rather brief. Some chord placements may be a little skewed. Lots of the lyrics are difficult to make out, so if you can help with that, my e-mail's above.
