DeVotchKa is an American band that melds a collection of influences into a blend of rock 'n' roll.
The band's fifth album shows influences of the Arizona desert with producer Craig Schumacher (Calexico, Neko Case) to create a compendium of short stories inspired by the varied moments the band experienced since the release of A Mad & Faithful Telling (Anti-, 2007).
Like many bands, DeVotchKa spent much of their early years traveling the highways and byways searching for gigs and a musical direction.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
CFG They’re just words, they ain’t worth nothing CFG Cloud your head and push your buttons CFG And watch how they just dis-ap-pear CFG When we’re far away from here
CHORUS: FG And everybody knows where this is heading CAm Forgive me for forgetting FGC Our hearts irrevocably combined FG Star-crossed souls slow dancing CAm Retreating and advancing FGC Across the sky until the end of time
CFG Oh who put all those cares inside your head CFG You can’t live your life on your deathbed CFG And it’s been such a lovely day CFG Let’s not let it end this way
CHORUS
FGCAm Like sisters and brothers we lean on each other FGC Like sweethearts carved on a headstone FGCAm Oh why even bother, it’ll be here tomorrow FGC It’s not worth it sleeping alone
CFG And look at you and me still here together CFG There is no one knows you better CFG And we’ve come such a long long way CFG Let’s put it off for one more day
