Biography:
Originally from Truro, Cornwall, Matt Woods moved to London 3 years ago to pursue his passion for music. Having been classically trained as a chorister from a young age, Matt developed a love for vocal harmony that is clear in his tracks. He joined forces with Sticky (the management company and studio where Ed Sheeran, Paloma Faith and Christina Perri have all recorded albums) and has spent the last year or so honing his craft, combining soulful vocals with minimal, electronic production.

G D Em
They took my life on August 31
G D Em
For all the bad they said that I had done
G D
One man he pulled the switch
Am
While my family watched my fingers twitch
G D Am
When they covered my face I knew my time had come
G D Em
When they covered my face I knew my time had come
D Em
My name is Johnny Ray Dupree
D Em
One big brother two sisters and me
Am C G
We were brought up just living to be free
D Am
Now she took that from me
C G
Now she took that from me
D Em
My name is Johnny Ray Dupree
They shaved my leg about an hour ago
I imagine they did so to help with all the flow
My last supper wouldn't much
Some banana pudding and a sack of nuts
The preacher came in and we prayed a prayer real low
That preacher and me we prayed a prayer real low
Chorus
C D
My lawyer said that I’d been drinking on that night
Am C
Couldn’t possibly have known that gun was loaded but he lied
G D
It’s true that there was whiskey but I loaded it myself
Am C
Cause I knew he was coming over soon as I had left
D Am
And I put it in the dresser drawer right beside the door
C Em
So I could have it in my hands before his feet had hit the floor
G D
They never heard me come in and I grabbed it like I planned
Am C
A lucky break that it was easier while they were still in bed
G D Am
A lucky break that it was easier while they were still in bed…
Am C G D
Am C G Em…
