Biography:
Red House Painters was an alternative rock band from San Francisco, CA, United States, formed in 1989 by singer/songwriter Mark Kozelek, who is currently active in the band Sun Kil Moon, with part of the original RHP line-up.
The band is described, along with Low and American Music Club, as one of the linchpins of the slowcore movement in alternative rock. Kozelek used this group primarily as a vehicle for his very personal and emotional songs of despair, pain and suffering.

Find another corner of the house
Asus2 G
When you need to get away
G D
Her guitar leans against the couch
Asus2 G
Sometimes I pick it up and play
G D
Loosen and stretch its ancient strings
Asus2 G
Until it sounds the way I feel
G D
Brush my thumb against it soft
Asus2 G
Give it life or give it pause
[Verse]
G D
When you look up in my eyes
Asus2 G
I’m looking down in yours
G D
All looks good up in the sky
Asus2 G
Down to your wooly carpet floor
G D
And I know that I have picked
Asus2 G
The most perfect sunflower yet
G D
Even on a sketchy day
Asus2 G
Just outside her shore we stay
[Verse]
G D
When all its colours turn and dry
Asus2 G
Will you live or will you die?
G D
When all its poise falls away
Asus2 G
Will you go or will you stay?

Fill the void in me now

Make your love to me girl

Red light getting me home

Driving down the freeway in your truck
Asus2 G
I watched the river flowing up
G D
Headlights cutting through the night
Asus2 G
Hear them pass this place in time
G D
And I know that I have slept
Asus2 G
In the warmest bedroom yet
G D
Even on the coldest day
Asus2 G
Here inside her shore we stay
[Verse]
G D
A Verse of hope
Asus2 G
There on that reel

Lets you know the way I feel

Ram my fists up in your hair
