Biography:
Michigan Rattlers is an American country-folk duo comprising Graham Young and Adam Reed.
Upholding a time-honored songwriting tradition, Michigan Rattlers recount human stories through a soundtrack of Americana punctuated by countrified rock 'n' roll and folk. The subjects of their 2016 self-titled debut EP practically live and breathe between Graham Young's rustling guitar and Adam Reed's percussive upright bass. Born in Petoskey, MI and based in Los Angeles, the duo's music plays out like a film.

[Intro]
G Em7 Cadd9 G (x4)
[Verse]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Well, my lawyer walked in the room
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And he said, "Sit down, son, I ain't got good news"
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Well, she's taking your kid away
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And now you've gotta pay
G Em7 Cadd9 G
But my boss just cut my hours
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And I've been feeling weak
G Em7 Cadd9 G
My baby knows how I've been feeling
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Yeah, why she wanna do this to me?
[Interlude]
G Em7 Cadd9 G (x4)
[Verse]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
I think she tried to make it work
G Em7 Cadd9 G
But it was her mama standing in the way
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Yeah, she never did like my guitar
G Em7 Cadd9 G
She always called me a mistake
G Em7 Cadd9 G
But she got a grandchild out of me
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And some photo albums sitting on the shelf
G Em7 Cadd9 G
So how mad can she really be?
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Turns out she's mad, and mad as hell
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Yeah, well I'm a natural disaster
Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll tear down your house
Cadd9 G
Yeah, well I'm a strain of cancer
Em7 Cadd9 G
I ain't good for no one else
[Interlude]
G Em7 Cadd9 G (x4)
[Verse]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And I've been going out at night
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Looking for what led me astray
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And I come back with worn out excuses
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Maybe it's the night that took it all away
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And I've got next to nothing in my bank account
G Em7 Cadd9 G
But I've got some friends that bail me out
G Em7 Cadd9 G
It's a hard life, I tell ya
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Living hand to mouth
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Yeah, well I'm a natural disaster
Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll tear down your house
Cadd9 G
Yeah, well I'm a strain of cancer
Em7 Cadd9 G
I ain't good for no one else

[Verse]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Now I'm walking down North Avenue
G Em7 Cadd9 G
On a cold, cold day
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Down below is the Chicago River
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Down below I think I'd like to stay
G Em7 Cadd9 G
So I jump right in
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Cause I don't wanna disappoint no more
G Em7 Cadd9 G
And all the memories, they turned into nightmares
G Em7 Cadd9 G
I think my welcome's been well-worn
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Yeah, well I'm a natural disaster
Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll tear down your house
Cadd9 G
Yeah, well I'm a strain of cancer
Em7 Cadd9 G
I ain't good for no one else
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Yeah, I ain't even good for my own damn self
Em7 Cadd9 G
I ain't good for no one else
