Bright Eyes es una banda de indie rock conformada por el guitarrista y cantautor Conor Oberst, el multiinstrumentista y productor Mike Mogis, y una alineación rotativa de colaboradores provenientes principalmente de la escena indie de Omaha, Nebraska. La facilidad que tiene Oberst para la crítica social y la filosofía le han hecho ganarse comparaciones con Bob Dylan, aunque sus temas más oscuros, de depresión, ansiedad y alcoholismo tienen más reminiscencias a Leonard Cohen o a Simon Joyner.
¡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!
EG#mC#mC#m This is the first day of my life ABEE Swear I was born right in the doorway EG#mC#m I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed C#mABEE They're spreading blankets on the beach
EG#mC#mC#m Yours is the first face that I saw ABEE Think I was blind before I met you EG#mC#m Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been C#mABEE But I know where I want to go
EG#mC#mC#m So I thought I'd let you know AB That these things take forever EG#mC#mC#m I especially am slow AF#mAF#mE But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home
G#m,C#m,C#m A,B,E,E
EG#mC#mC#m I remember the time you drove all night ABEE Just to meet me in the morning EG#mC#m I thought it was strange, you said everything changed C#mABEE You felt as if you'd just woke up
EG#mC#mC#m And you said, "This is the first day of my life. ABEE I'm glad I didn't die before I met you. EG#mC#mC#m Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you, ABEE And I'd probably be happy."
EG#mC#mC#m So if you want to be with me AB With these things there's no telling EG#mC#mC#m We'll just have to wait and see AF#mAF#mE But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery
G#m,C#m,C#m
AF#mAF#mE Besides, maybe this time its different, I mean I really think you like me
