The Avett Brothers is an American folk-rock band that originated in Concord, North Carolina. Two brothers, Seth Avett and Scott Avett, formed the group in 2000 after the breakup of the former rock band, Nemo, adding a third member, Bob Crawford. Subsequently, they have been joined by cellist Joe Kwon. The Avett Brothers combine old-time country, bluegrass, punk, pop melodies, folk, rock and roll, honky tonk and ragtime to produce a sound described by the Washington Post as "post civil-war modern rock", or by other reviewers as "grungegrass".

GD You're not a girl, you're a town CG You're snow on the ground GDC You're my first year in school GDAmC You're the words in a song that Hoon sang to me GDCG And all around my memories, you dance
GD You're not a girl, you're a car CG You're a red Trans Am GDC You're 90 miles an hour GDAmC We never get caught cause there's no cops around GDC And no roads like this, downtown
DCBm Why'd we have to change AmC/BCD It all seems so fine CBm We'll go our own ways AmC/BC We're both asking DCBm Why'd we have to change AmC/BCD It all seems so fine CBm We'll go our own ways AmC/BCFFmCGAm We're both asking, why
GDCG You're not a girl, you're the night of the homecoming game GD You're the voice in my head C Just begging me to stay GCAmC You're the smoke in our lights as we sped away GDC To catch the moonlight on the graves
Solo: PLAY VERSE CHORDS
GD You're not a girl, you're a waltz CG You're a canopy bed GDC You're June to August GCAmC You're the back and forth sway of the hammock all day GDC When I asked you what did you say?
DCBm Why'd we have to change AmC/BCD It all seems so fine CBm We'll go our own ways AmC/BC We're both asking DCBm Why'd we have to change AmC/BCD It all seems so fine CBm We'll go our own ways AmC/BCFFmCGAm We're both asking, why
