Biografía:
The Beta Band fue un grupo musical británico que ganó la aclamación de la crítica y logró ser considerada como una banda de culto, pero que sin embargo, no tuvo un gran impacto comercial en la industria de la música actual. Su estilo se define como folk hop, una mezcla de folk, rock, trip hop y musica experimental.
The Beta Band fue formada en 1996 en Edimburgo por los músicos Steve Mason (vocales, guitarra) y Gordon Anderson. Ambos tenían planeado llamar a su grupo The Pidgeons, pero después cambiaron de idea.

Tips:
-At the end of verse 3 - you want to only play the 4 central strings of D, and the 4
of F - and palm muting them between strums works well.
-For the last bit, use your thumb for the notes on the low E or you've got no chance!

Verse 1:
A D
I went to look for shadows but the shadows they found me
A D D*
I went to swim the ocean but I drowned up in the sea
A D
I want to love my woman but she chose him over me
A D
I want to be somebody else I feel I won't be free
A* G*
Is this me for life?
Bridge:
A**
Ahhhhh Ahhhhhh
Verse 2:
Chords: As verse 1
I fought to keep from crying as I lay upon the floor
And everyone I knew right then pressed me to the floor
I tried to keep on breathing but the people would not give
And all the evil in the world the people would not give
Is this me for life?
Verse 3:
F D
And if you left it up to me they'd all go in the sea
C
with the guns and the disease and the industry of weasels
D F
Saying: sell to them the killing gem, attack to get it back
