Biography:
The White Buffalo is American musician and singer-songwriter Jake Smith (born in Oregon in 1974/1975, and raised in California).
The White Buffalo is said to be a throwback to the time of hard touring, hard drinking artists who really lived what they sang about. Everything about him is big, from his imposing physical size to his amazing vocal range. He’s as comfortable playing in a dive bar as he is in front of thousands in a European arena.

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!
In the verses and the choruses:
D alternates usually with Gmaj9
F# alternates usually with F#7
Listen to the track for pattern, the chords alternate only by taking the
index finger off the frets. It's fairly straightforward. I wrote the song
down with the chords in fixed places so you could get a feeling of how the
lyrics are phrased, hope it helps.
[Intro]
D Gmaj9 F# F#7 x2
[Verse]
D F#
I'm down at the bowery, oh Lord oh Lord, gonna tell you how I got here
D F#
First I gotta shoot some dice and win so I can get my room again
D F#
It all started with a love so true and the angels flew higher than I'd ever been
D F#
With a sparkle in her face and her eyes and the butterflies it all came rushing in
[Chorus]
Bm A D
Buttercup, I lost my wife in '73
Bm A D
She took ill, she done died on me
F#
And I've got nothing more to live for
[Verse]
D F#
So I packed up a bag and went, I just started wandering
D F#
I hid in the booze and the shadows of the night, I just started crumbling
[Chorus]
Bm A D
Buttercup, I lost my wife in '73
Bm A D
She took ill, she done died on me
F#
And I've got nothing more to live for
[Break]
D F#
Oh, it just dont seem fair
D F#
I met her under a chandelier
D F#
And time and space changed from there
[Chorus]
Bm A D
Buttercup, I lost my wife in '73
Bm A D
She took ill, she done died on me
Bm A D
Buttercup, I lost my wife in '73
Bm A D
She took ill, she done died on me
[Outro]
F#
And I've got nothing more to live for
F# (no F#7) G (barred)
