Biography:
American band The Afghan Whigs were a soul-influenced, alternative rock band that was mainly active in the 1990s. While achieving only moderate commercial success, the Afghan Whigs attracted ample critical acclaim and deeply loyal fans, Rolling Stone described the band as spending “the bulk of their career on the brink of stardom”, yet they’ve “never quite broken beyond a substantial legion of devotees enamored of their thinly veiled sleaze.”

[Verse 1]
Em
Naked but for tears- While the sky falls down
C/E Em
Panting for the rush- Hissing thru the crowd
Em
Waving at the wheels But I can't slow down
C/E Em
I'm riding- Riding thru your town-
[Chorus]
C Em
So say what you got to say
C Em
Play, but you got to pay-
[Instrumental]
Em C/E
[Verse 2]
Em
Heavy is the head- But you wear no crown
C/E Em
Hang it In the sky And step inside your dream
Em
I know what I know And with the lights down low
C/E Em
I'm riding- Riding down your street
[Chorus]
C Em
So say what you got to say
C Em
Say what you got to say
Em
A
E
She went to California
Painted in light
A
Til all the colors ran-
Wild
E
You came to mesmerize her-
A
She came with consequences in her eyes-
In her eyes-
Deep in her eyes
[Outro]
C#m B A E
Listen in the distance- As the sky begins to fall
C#m B A E
Raining down like crystalline Apocalypse in thrall
C#m
Rolling under-
B
Torn asunder-
A
Blinded by it all
C#m B
Once there was a way-
A E
Then you were gone
