O Indigo Girls é composto por Amy Ray e Emily Saliers. Elas se conheceram no playground de uma escola primária em Decatur, Georgia, e têm tocado juntas desde o ensino médio. Foram contratadas pela Epic Records em 1989 e ganharam o Grammy de melhor albúm comtemporâneo folk naquele ano. Algumas de suas músicas são "Galileo", "Closer to Fine," e "Shame on You."
Além de musicistas, Ray e Saliers são ativistas, sempre apoiando campanhas para o controle de armas

Fishtails by Indigo Girls (Written by Amy Ray) Standard Tuning, no capo
Intro: Am F C G x2 (Play around with the strumming, there's a good bit of hammering on, esp. around the Cs)
Verse 1: AmFCG You know all them sweaty boys hanging out at the copper mines AmFCG You watched them growing up under the bridge on the river shoals off Georgia 9 AmFCG They used to lay their sweet bodies out just waiting on a fishing line AmFCG Just like your daddy did when he was a kid in the wilds of Florida AmFCG But your daddy's gone and those boys jacked up got rough moved on
AmFCG
Verse 2: AmFCG You find your own self hiding in the stories of drunken men AmFCG With their kids in tow from the picture show riding over mountain bends AmFCG And you can feel their fingers crossing when the black ice of winter comes AmFCG But they'll be fishtailing in the dark from the time that they are born
Chorus: FCAmG Hey, you know your daddy's gone, those boys you loved got rough with the girls and F moved on CAmGFC Still you gotta find some goodness somewhere somehow, so hug the corners take the AmGFGAmFCG straights from the cradle to the grave oh we all give what, yeah, what we got
Verse 3: AmFCG In the winter you'll go south and fall asleep in the late day sun AmFCG Holding still to catch the last of the warmth before the storm clouds roll on in AmFCG At night you watch the kids riding in their hoodies in the rain AmFCG Heading up to St. Johns causeway bridge fishtailing all the way
Chorus: FCAmG Hey, you know your daddy's gone, those boys you loved got rough with the girls and F moved on CAmGFC Still you gotta find some goodness somewhere somehow, so hug the corners take the AmGFGAmFCG straights from the cradle to the grave oh we all give what, yeah, what we got
Yeah we all give what we got
