The Lucksmiths were an influential indie pop band formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1993. The members are Martin Donald (Guitar), Taliesyn 'Tali' White (Vocals, Drums), and Mark Monnone (Bass) and in 2004 they acquired Mid State Orange's guitarist Louis Richter on second guitar. Whilst originating from beach-side Melbourne, the original three members of The Lucksmiths moved to inner Melbourne and fell in love with its charms. The songs Under the Rotunda, The Cassingle Revival and Tmrw Vs Y'Day all demonstrate as much.

GDEmC I?ll put this place behind me soon For somewhere bright and shiny and new These streets got smaller the more I grew GDC It might be trite but it?s true GDEmC I?m walking home in the early evening My fingers are numb and I can see myself breathing I feel down and out, I feel like up-and-leaving GDC There?s somewhere I?d rather be than here GC (3X) D GDEmC GDBC
GDEmC I?m as good as my word, I?m as good as gone Some days nothing can go wrong And I feel strange and I feel strong GDC This is not where I belong... GC And I don?t love you any more GC And I don?t love you any less GC You?re just as lovely as you were D The day we met GC Let?s get out of here GC I?m looking forward to the future GC I?ve got a good idea GGCCGGGG And I?ve got a motorscooter CG (10th Fret) CG (10th Fret) CAmG
