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.

TRAGEDY
Capo 3
In waltz time
Though it’s not marked during the verses, always play the Am without the root B for two measures
[Intro]
Am Am Am/B E x4
Am Am/B E
The end, it shouldn't end like this
Am Am/B E
it's the bottle she is merciless
Am Am/B E
she's stringing me along
Am Am/B E
she's stringing me along
Am Am/B E Am
And how could such a palace house
Am/B E Am
deceit and malice
Am/B E Am
there's something wrong here
Am/B E
there's something wrong here
E E E7
As the words were chosen
E E E7
his heart was frozen
E E E7
his soul had spoken
E E E7 E7
but it sounded all twisted and broken
Am Am/B E
Years and years ago
Am Am/B E
they delivered the final blow
Am Am/B E Am Am/B E
and suddenly his life ain't worth a damn
Am
There were ghosts
Am/B E
and they lit up this town
Am
but they left
Am/B E Am
when they sold off the underground
Am/B E Am Am/B E
we ain't welcome here no more
E E E7
As the words were chosen
E E E7
his heart was frozen
E E E7
his soul had spoken
E E E7 E7
but it sounded all twisted and broken
[Interlude]
Am Am Am/B E x4
Am Am/B E
I, I won't let you down
Am Am/B E
it's my first day back in town
Am Am/B E
but my skin is six feet underground
Am Am/B E
and everything is different now
Am Am/B E
The end, it shouldn't end like this
Am Am/B E
it's the bottle, she is merciless
Am Am/B E
she's stringing me along
Am Am/B E
she's stringing me along again
E E E7
As the words were chosen
E E E7
his heart was frozen
E E E7
his soul had spoken
E E E7 E7
but it sounded all twisted and broken
[Fadeout]
