Biography:
Parquet Courts is a band from New York City. At the center of the group is A. Savage, who at this point is known for his collaborations with projects like Fergus & Geronimo, Teenage Cool Kids and Wiccans. Savage is joined by three other musicians (“three quarters Texans and three quarters Pisces”) and describes the bands’ debut release as THE FALL meets NEIL YOUNG. On the band’s debut release, “American Specialties”, this all makes sense.

Verse:
C#
How are you, how have you been, it's sad these days I find
G#
We reveal ourselves at checkpoints not in true moments of life
F#
Now I wonder through the awkward pauses
C#
that became our new benchmark of time
G# F# A#
Ohhh There’s no name for this feeling that your absence has defined
Bridge: G# F# A#
C#
Upon your bedside table lies the graveyard of romance
G#
An empty wrapper weighted by a jar of rocks from France
F# C#
A necklace used to magnify your eyes the night I made the first advance
G# F# A# G# F# A#
Ohh I did it just to break the ice it needn’t be enhanced
Solo: C# C# / G# G# / F# F# / C# G# F# A#
Verse:
C#
How are you, how have you been, I practiced on the drive
G#
I cross the square states in between us to see you alive

I imagine at the first glance they would say if there was something to revive
G# F# A#
Ohh I got a room in Bozeman i had three days to arrive
Outro: G# F# A#
