The Jayhawks ha sido uno de los más genuinos grupos del estilo musical llamado Americana. La banda es originaria de Minesota y se hace popular en 1985. Entonces agrupaba a Marc Olson a la guitarra acústica y voces, Gary Louris a la guitarra eléctrica y voces, Marc Perlman al bajo y Thad Spencer a la batería. Ken Callahan sustituiría a Thad hasta 1993. En el 92, agotador año de conciertos, se les une Karen Grotberg para ocuparse de los teclados. En 1995 Olson deja la banda, que pasa a ser liderada por Lourys.

Intro: EmBmAm repeated GC God of the rich man ain't the God of the poor. GCD God's men and the state hospitals closed, and don't you know CCG Winos and office girls in the park. GC One of you longed to walk beside her, GCD One of you longed to live beside her, it was morning, CG Better roads with light on them.
Chorus: CGCG Can your diamonds talk to you, can you see them shine. CGFG Keep them hiding in your room, can they guide you in your time.
Verse 2 Windows were broken by the dear one's hand, Gates left swinging by your dear one's hand, an old book salesman asked if he could step in. The sidewalks you slept on held no rest. You gave away the money you'd saved in your trust, you're sorry now. Life hits you funny at a time.
Chorus: Bridge: (Sung over intro chords) The sidewalks, you slept on, they're so broken. I'll meet you there.
Verse 3 Years before the tears would start to roll, You walked outside, ran back in your room, what did you hope for, I turned the corner while you slept. God of the rich man ain't the God of the poor. God's men and the state hsopitals closed, and don't you know, Winos and office girls ion the park.
Chorus:
The walk up lick is played on the D string, it's chromatic starting with the open D. During the verse hammer on the D on the B string when playing the C chords.
