Biography:
The Classic Crime is a Seattle-based alternative rock band. They released their Tooth & Nail debut album, 'Albatross', in 2006. It marked the fastest first-week sales for a new artist in the history of T&N. The band members are Matt MacDonald (vocals), Justin DuQue (guitar), Robert "Cheeze" Negrin (guitar), Alan Clark (bass), and Paul "Skip" Erickson (drums).
While touring in support of their full-length album Albatross, the band created the Acoustic EP: Seattle Sessions, which was simply a compilation of songs they created while on the road.

Tuning is a half step down like most of their songs. The song sounds more complex
but these are the basic chords. I didn't include the guitar 2 intro part.

C Am
All I can see is as far as my headlights can show me.
C Am
And all of the roads look the same in each state that I drove in.
C G
As I grip the wheel, and I drift away wishing,
C G
I could wake up just a second too late so that,
C G A
I could see Heaven and I'd get a taste,
D
Then I'd just keep going
C G
So here’s to the promise of glamorous living,
C G
You must drink up now, cause it's all that you're getting
C G A
If you haven't been tested, you certainly will,
C D G
And I promise it's going to kill.
C Am
All I can think of is how much I'd kill to be sleeping.
C Am
I'm squinting my eyes, my minds drifting to secrets I'm keeping.
C G
And the long haling trucks are all parked in their stops,
C G
Just like luminous ghost to something that once was.
C G A
The rigs look so empty when framed by their lies,
D
And that’s how I'm feeling..
C G
So here’s to the promise of glamorous living,
C G
You must drink up now, cause it's all that you're getting
C G A
If you haven't been tested, you certainly will,
C D G
And I promise it's going to kill.
Am
It's all at their expense,
Em
If this is real, I'm a fake.
Am
At least I feel important,
Em
I won't lie, I lie to get paid.
