Dax Riggs (born 15 October 1973 in Evansville, Indiana, United States) is an independently-signed singer/songwriter. His diverse musical style encompasses heavy metal, psychedelic rock, blues rock, and post-punk. His distinct lyrical style is characterized by a consumption by darkness, Satanic visions, druggy hallucinations, melancholy, morbid imagery, and a fascination with death in specific, all in an impassioned, raspy baritone that can be largely characterized as nocturnally beautiful in feeling.
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!
#This is actually just a slight correction of the intro from version2 and I added the ahas, heahs and babys (which are substantial when playing something from Dax, :-)) in the lyrics. Best played with a light distortion and some whiskey.
(I think its around Tempo=160)

Song
G Along the highway D And the graveyard lines G Have mercy on the devil C He's a friend of mine GC Sometimes, sometimes G Dancing this phantom up D And down my spine G Have mercy on the devil C He's a friend of mine GCG Sometimes sometimes sometimes GD We are living this suicide G If god looked upon us DE It would surely leave us blind D Surely leave us blind A Surely leave us blind CG Surely leave us blind C Living is suicide, aha E Living is suicide, heah D Living is suicide, aha C Living is suicide E Baby, Living is suicide, aha D Living is suicide, aha A, C Living is suicide, aha G Living is suicide
