Biography:
PHOEBE KILLDEER & The Short Straws
'Weather's coming...'
«There's a sound that had to be found, it was going round in my head, tribal and vibrant, yet dark and cinematographic, music you can move to, as much slow as wild all out shaking.»
At a young age Phoebe Killdeer wanted to write and create her own music, she was already listening to what would become her main influences: Tom Waits, Art of noise, Yma Sumac, Nick Cave, Carmen McRae…
«I have a fascination with words and lyrics

Capo on 4th
[Intro]
Am
[Verse]
Am
It's everywhere I look
Am
From Las Vegas to right here
Am
Under your dresser
Am
Right by your ear
Am
It's creeping in sweetly
Am
It's definitely here
Am
There's nothing more deadly
Am
Than slow growing fear
[Verse]
Am
Life was full and fruitful
Am
And you could take a real bite
Am
The juice poring well over
Am
Your skins de-light
Am
But the shadow it grows
Am
And takes the depth away
Am
Leaving broken down pieces
Am
To this priceless bal-let
[Chorus]
G D
The shallower it grows
Am
The shallower it grows
Amadd4
The fainter we go into the fade out line
G D
The shallower it grows
Am
The shallower it grows
The fainter we go into the fade out line
[Verse]
Am
Did we build all those bridges
Am
To watch them thin down to dust
Am
Or blow them voluntarily
Am
Out of constant trust
Am
The clock is ticking its last couple of tocks
Am
And there won't be a party with the weathering frocks
[Chorus]
G D
The shallower it grows
Am
The shallower it grows
Amadd4
The fainter we go into the fade out line
G D
The shallower it grows
Am
The shallower it grows
Am
The fainter we go into the fade out line
[Break]
Am
Heading deeper down
G Am C Am
We're sliding without noticing our own decline
Heading deeper down
G Am C Am
We're hanging onto sweet nothings left behind
[Solo]
Am
Deeper down
Am
We're all going down
Am
Down deeper down, yeah
[Verse]
Am
We are all plunging straight towards our own decline
Am
Without noticing we slide down deeper down
Am
The shadow grows without ever slowing down
Am
We are heading straight
Am
Into the fade out line
[Chorus]
G D
The shallower it grows
Am
The shallower it grows
Amadd4
The fainter we go into the fade out line
G D
The shallower it grows
Am
The shallower it grows
Am
The fainter we go into the fade out line
