Formada em 1987, em Tempe, no Arizona, pelos amigos Bill Leen (baixo) e Doug Hopkins, o Gim Blossoms tinha em sua formação inicial o vocalista Jesse Valenzuela, o guitarrista Richard Taylor e o baterista Chris McCann. No mesmo ano, trocam de baterista, entrando na banda Dan Henzerling, rapidamente substituído por Phillip Rhodes. Outro que sai em 1987 é o guitarrista Richard Taylor, em seu lugar entra Robin Wilson. Wilson também assume os vocais a banda e Valenzuela passa para a guitarra.

SONG NAME: Perfectly Still ARTIST: Gin Blossoms ALBUM: Congratulations I'm Sorry YEAR: 1996 TABBED BY: Malvolio
"Perfectly Still" -- Gin Blossoms
Note: This tab is in power chords, because A) It's easier to tab that way, and I'm a lazy ass; and B) at the time I tabbed it, I was alternating between listening to the Gin Blossoms album and a Screeching Weasel album (talk about variety!) so the tab is a little weird. I think I've got it about right; just slip in a few minors or 7ths or something.
DG It's our call DG It sways, it stalls DGAD I need a little extra time alone, I'll maybe take the long way home DG Just enough to get it wrong EF#G Nothing like a bad decision says who you are
DGBAD Fools rush in for the grist* in my, for the grist in my mill GBAD Can't you see when you're perfectly, when you're perfectly still
(* - What the hell is grist anyway? god, I'm such a dumbass)
Verses: One big rout, all sold out (??) we'll pay Price tags on every other day We're bankrupt here for now But they can't take my anger, it can't be touched
Faded maps, pull out ramps I won't contribute to our own demise Pass up the consolation prize It starts from here from now Nothing like a bad decision...
And I'll be damned if I know the solo. Somewhere near the end it changes key, I think to E. Later, E. Hulka
