The Vines are an Australian alternative rock band originally formed as Rishikesh in 1994 in Sydney. They play a musical hybrid of 1960s garage rock and 1990s alternative music. The line-up currently consists of vocalist and lead guitarist Craig Nicholls, the band's only constant member.
They appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone in October 2002 (the first Australian band to do so since Men at Work in 1983) with the words "Rock is Back: meet the Vines" boldly emblazoned underneath.

CGA There ain't no room for me in the city CGA The lights go down but it looks so pretty CG So take me away from the corner A Let me hide away in the fauna CGA With something at my side
DCA Forget it now forget it then DCA We'll hang around without a care
INTRO again (Twice)
SAME CHORDS AS FIRST VERSE There ain't no room for me in the city The lights go down but it looks so pretty So take me away from the corner Let me hide away in the fauna With something at my side
DCA Going outta my head DCA Was it something I read
SAME CHORDS AS FIRST CHORUS Forget it now Forget it then We'll hang around without a care
