Biography:
Hometown: New York.
Band lineup: Matt Hitt (vocals, guitar), Jack Ridley III (guitar), Erik Lee Snyder (bass), and Joe Brodie (drums).
We can't tell yet if Drowners are a typical New York band or a typical London one. They're said by some to be part of the ongoing Britpop renaissance (Blur and Pulp reforming, new bands like Blackeye forming), but really they have more in common with the early-noughties CBGBs revival.
Their music has as much in common with the late-70s UK new wave era as it does the US one.

Capo on 2nd fret
(Intro: G Em Am)
G Em Am
In a simple skirt, you caused the ricochet
G Em Am
Of courting boys who watch you walk away
Bm C
But I don't live my life like you do,
Bm C
No I don't live my life like you do
Chorus:
G B7 C
So hold me down and never let me go,
G B7 C
The school boy grin that only goes to show,
G D Em
That I could never have such control,
Em G
Every time you leave, Every time you leave I wanna go
(Intro again)
(Same as first verse)
Rip me up and bully me in jest,
Like the afternoons where you spent sleeping on my chest
But I don't live my life like you do,
No I don't live my life like you do
So hold me down and never let me go,
The school boy grin that only goes to show,
That I could never have such control
Every time you leave, Every time you leave I wanna go
(Not sure about this one guitar part but any contributions are welcome!
Chords that run after it are Em Bm & after the guitar part again Em D)
So hold me down and never let me go,
The school boy grin that only goes to show,
That I could never have such control,
Everytime you leave, Everytime you leave I wanna go
