Biography:
Shannon and the Clams is an American indie garage punk quartet based in Oakland, California. Known for a vintage sound that incorporates elements of doo-wop, classic R&B, garage psych, and surf, the band has drawn comparisons to both Buddy Holly and 1960s girl groups.
Like a Beach Rock revival, Shannon and the Clams take you back to a time when Judy and Johnny were your favorite worst couple, with the help of some very heartbreaking background vocals and guitar riffs of which The Beatles would be proud.

[Intro]
A F#m A F#m
[Verse 1]
A F#m
I see the morning sun although my eyes are shut
E F#m
I'm in somebody's bed, I wonder what I said
A F#m
She reaches out for me but I'm 32 degrees
E F#m
There is nothing to say, I just want to escape
[Chorus 1]
D Bm
Well I never wanted love
D Bm
It always seemed too much
A F#m
Was born a lonely one
A F#m
With a bad broken toe
D Bm
And even though I try
D Bm
It finds me every time
A F#m
We fall right back in line
A F#m
You tie your hands to mine
A F#m
You tie your hands to mine
A F#m
You tie your hands to mine
[Bridge]
A F#m A F#m
[Verse 2]
A F#m
I wake up on a drive, I see a stranger sky
E F#m
Don't speak to anyone, cover myself in blood
A F#m
I get lonely again, something I can't resist
E F#m
I want you in my game, I want to say your name
[Chorus 2]
D Bm
Well I never wanted love
D Bm
It always seemed too much
A F#m
Was born a lonely one
A F#m
With a bad broken toe
D Bm
And even though I try
D Bm
It finds me every time
A F#m
We fall right back in line
A F#m
You tie your hands to mine
A F#m
You tie your hands to mine
A F#m
You tie your hands to mine

A F#m
I see the morning sun although my eyes are shut
E F#m
I'm in somebody's bed, I wonder what I said

There is nothing to say, I just want to escape
