El sonido de estos chicos encuentra sus raíces en la tradición country y folk, con matices que hacen del suyo un sonido personalísimo: tempos lentos y letárgicos, lánguidas guitarras, y la evocativa, preciosa voz de Margo Timmins. "Cuando empezamos, nuestro principal objetivo no era durar mucho como grupo, sino que lo hiciera la musica", afirma el compositor y guitarrista Michael Timmins. "Teníamos la esperanza de que nuestra sinceridad se contemplara a través de las canciones".
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

COWBOY JUNKIES' LAMENT (written by Townes ? [can't remember last name]) (from Black-Eyed Man, by the Cowboy Junkies) -------------------------------------------------------------
Intro: E* (x2)
Verse:
EA Baby's in the back lot breathin' real heavy BAE Said the boys in the alley wouldn't leave her alone EA Mama did her makeup in a terrible hurry BAE She finally got ready but the boys were gone AB Mama don't you worry, night's approachin' ABE There's a hole in heaven where some sin slips through EA Just close your eyes, and dream real steady BAE Maybe just a little will spill on you
E
Chorus:
EAB Dark don't lie E* Dreams come true AE All it takes is one or two
Verse: "Old lady rose, lookin' down her nose..." Chorus: "Won't be long, I won't be gone..." Verse: "Those in the know, say so it goes..." Chorus: "Snake eyes cry, boxcars sigh..." Chorus: "Dark don't lie, dreams come true..." (then repeat the A E sequence for: "Maybe just a few will see you through") (and repeat it twice more without words for the Outtro)
Chords:
E 022100 A 002220 B 224442
Notes:
E* means that the E is decorated by futzing it with an Em (as you can hear in the song). There is a lot of sliding in the song. Not currently possessing a slide, or knowing how to tune the guitar to an appropriately to slide to this song, I just make do by sometimes sliding the A up to 004440. It sounds pretty good for the chorus.
Apologies in advance for lyrical errors. By the way, does anyone out there know "Murder, Tonight, in the Trailer Park?"

P.S. This group has brought me closer to a lot of cool music. Thought it high time I started to return the favor. Thanks!
