The Official Story:
Dealership began a music project conceived by Chris Wetherell and Chris Groves in 1995 while they were students and musicians studying at U.C. Berkeley. Chris W. blew his student loan check on band gear and they began to play.
Their music didn't go anywhere until the Chrises begged everyone they knew to be in the band with them, until finally, sucker that she was, Jane Pinckard agreed to learn to play the guitar.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is the way I play it, sounds pretty close to me:
(Intro: F C F C)
C F
Stay where you are,
C
Don't jump on any planes.
F
And I'll keep on kicking myself
C
For having let you get away.
Bb
But I will say it's circumstance
F
And point to the vane.
F7
Chalk it all up to the weather
Bb
And not to your disdain.
Bb F
I'll yell from afar
C
If I need to call you names.
F
Forgo the thought of killing myself,
C
Instead I'll let you take aim.
Bb
And force your declaration
F
Of what we became.
F7
Sure, on paper it looks good,
Bb
If you ignore the stains.
Bb F
It's the little things that set me off.
Bb F C
Your favorite shirt is someone else's cloth...
(Interlude: F C F C)
C F
So stay who you are,
C
Though some would call it strange.
F
And I'll keep on kidding myself
C
That I can make you change.
Bb
You know more than anyone
F
My need to deceive.
F7
And while I can fool the world,
Bb
Mostly I fool me.
Bb F
It's the little things that set me off,
Bb F
Like walking by our favorite coffee shop,
Bb F
Or seeing your haircut at the bus stop,
Bb F C
Or hearing someone cough just like you cough.
F
Just hold
Bb
A moment.
C Bb
Please, humour me.
F
I'm not
Bb
Reacting
F C
Fanatically.
F C Bb
And hear how my voice is a code
Bb
To you...
F
All Dots
C
And Dashes
Bb
Mixed up
C
In clues...
F
my love
