Damien Jurado é cantorcompositor que possui uma presença forte no cenário Indie, ganhou ótimos elogios devido ao seu trabalho, E seu espírito independente nasceu pelo menos em parte da influência do punk. E um dos fatos que abateu sobre seu trabalho foi a preocupação emocional que o levou a mergulhar na vida de outras pessoas em vez da sua própria. É aquela melodia do cotidiano tranquila , calma chegando a ter comparações com Raymond Carver
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!

In standard tuning, no capo. (Though I more often play it all half a step down but thats due more to my personal obsession with this tuning than anything else)
The whole song is essentially just (same pattern for every verse). --------------
Dsus2G Johnny lets go out riding to a place outside of town Dsus2G I go there every Sunday to watch the sun go down Dsus2G There's plenty of girls who know you, they've been asking where you've been AG Johnny don't dissapoint them, they'd all like to see you again
Dsus2G Willy I don't think im ready to leave this house of mine Dsus2G You go out and tell them I'm not the social kind Dsus2G Some men they are lovers and others the fighting type AG And me I'm in the middle of choosing which one I'd like..... to be
Dsus2G Judy she's out catching rides in passing cars Dsus2G The memories of me and her have burned out like the stars Dsus2G Me I'm not dissapointed knowing that she's free AG Somewhere down the line I knew she'd one day up and leave
Dsus2G Willy forget your troubles and lay back on the grass Dsus2G There's no need to get nostalgic thinking about the past Dsus2G What's gone is gone, what's here is now, she's standing by your fence AG She's wearing a beautiful party dress and wanting you to dance..... hey hey.

But the real flavour of the song is in all the little runs and hammer-ons, a lot of the time the first strum of the Dsus2 hammers on as below:
