Biography:
The devolution of Mat McHugh. That’s what we’re talking about. Bands get bigger over time. Music gets louder. Everything evolves, there is nothing which doesn’t change over time. Some artists keep trying to find bigger mountains to climb, others make a conscious effort to crawl back into the sea.
In 2002 the frontman and creative force behind The Beautiful Girls began riding the wave as the band’s Morning Sun EP became the radio hit of the Australian Summer.

Strange Days - Mat Mchugh
Capo 2
Intro:
C Am F C
C Am F C
Verse 1:
C Am
All last night
F C
Well I dreamt I was free
C Am
Free from both truth and love
F C
And they were free from me
C Am
Dressed up like a businessman
F C
Making money off of war
C Am
Messed up as a politician
F C
Taking money from the poor
C Am
No longer weighed down
F C
By respect, nor decency
C Am
No blood, no faith found
F C
No place for them to be
C Am
And I wore my crown
F C
Like a liar's sword
C Am
Cursed at the ground
F C
That I've been walking on
C
Been walking on
Am F C
C
I've been walking on
Am F C
Verse 2:
C Am
All last night
F C
Well I dreamt I was cold
C Am
Started up a fire burning
F C
Us out of control
C Am
A face I barely recognize
F C
Was staring out from the smoke
C Am
Then, pointed at my blackened heart
F C
But the broken voice then spoke
C Am
Said, 'plans are only wrecking balls
F C
Then life gets on its way
C Am
There's more to this than I recall
F C
Probably more than I could say
C Am
And if hate shall be your weapon
F C
Lonely death shall be your toll
C Am
And if profit is your motive
F C
Then emptiness your soul
C
Emptiness your soul
Am F C
C
Emptiness your soul
Am F C
Verse 3:
C Am
All last night
F C
Well I dreamt I was gone
C Am
Nothing left but ashes
F C
A bitter taste upon your tongue
C Am
Shadows in the market
F C
Where as a child I had once played
C Am
Abandoned in the evening
F C
Like a bloodless serenade
C Am
Every moment crashing
F C
Through my mind, cold like the wind
C Am
That whistles down the promenade
F C
Where my love and I had been
C Am
No countenance, no reason
F C
For the things I may have done
C Am
Left stripped and standing naked
F C
In the place that I begun
C
All come undone
Am F C
C
All come undone
Am F C C
Am F C
C
Saw these strange days
Am F C
C
Saw these strange days
Am F C
C
Saw these strange days
Am F C
C
Saw these strange days
Am F C
Take me away
