Biography:
DeVotchKa is an American band that melds a collection of influences into a blend of rock 'n' roll.
The band's fifth album shows influences of the Arizona desert with producer Craig Schumacher (Calexico, Neko Case) to create a compendium of short stories inspired by the varied moments the band experienced since the release of A Mad & Faithful Telling (Anti-, 2007).
Like many bands, DeVotchKa spent much of their early years traveling the highways and byways searching for gigs and a musical direction.

G F
I snatched you away from the jaws of the world
G F
But I drank up her oceans and dried up her pearls
G F
I acted reprehensibly
G F
I acted like she was sent here for me
[Pre-Chorus]

Gold in the water and under the water
G
The richer man gave his lovely daughter

For lack of decency

She robbed a thief like me

I'm baptized with the neighbor's daughter

For a life of decency

She saved a wretch like me
