The Ataris are a punk rock band from Anderson, Indiana formed in 1995. The band originally consisted of singer/songwriter/guitarist Kris Roe and guitarist Jasin Thomason. Using a 4-Track, they wrote and recorded demos in Kris's bedroom, with a drum machine as the drummer. At this point in time the band was searching for a full-time drummer. The first step in their road to success came when Kris attended a The Vandals concert at Bogart's in Cincinnati, where he passed one of the demo tapes to The Vandals' roadie Fitz.

The Ataris - Bad Case of Broken Heart By:Andrew Mcshan([email protected])
DA Today I'm missing something BmAG In this small New England town G Here's to you my best friend A I just wanted to say that I miss having you around DA I'm starring at your pictures BmAG And dreaming that I could hold your hand G We would walk down to the ocean A And I would write your name in the sand
BmAG They say sometimes you need some time apart DA But I've got a bad case of broken heart BmAG You're the only one whose got the cure A And I can't live another day without seeing you smile
DA 2000 miles between us BmAG and I guess that I'm the one to blame. G relationships and heartaches, A these two things are one and the same. DA the radio plays a love song. BmAG I smash my fist right through the dial. G here's to the broken hearted. A a generation born in denial.
BmAG They say sometimes you need some time apart DA But I've got a bad case of broken heart BmAG You're the only one whose got the cure A And I can't live another day without seeing you smile
