Biography:
Silver Jews was an American indie rock band from New York City. The band's earliest incarnation was the college band Ectoslavia, formed by future Pavement founders Bob Nastanovich, Stephen Malkmus and frontman David Berman at the University of Virginia in 1989. An exercise in joyous noise, the band disbanded after graduation and the three friends moved to New York to take up various jobs - Nastanovich, a bus driver, and Berman and Malkmus, art museum security guards.

Am F C* (third case) ..G..E
I'm scared, I swear of you-uuuuuuuu
Am F C* G E
In a tunnel, in the darkness, darkest shade of blue
There's beasts, and there's men
and something on this earth
that comes back again.
Alpha, beta, gamma, ...everybody smoke
Well you can't say, that my soul has gone away
Well you can't say, that my soul has gone away
No, you can't say, that my soul has gone away
Well, this trouble in the house,
trouble on the stairs
Trouble in the trouble,
that trouble in the air
Well, please don't say (repeat in second voice)
That my soul has died away
There is a house in New Orleans
Not the one you heard about
I'm talking 'bout another house
They spoke of gold in the cellar
That a spanish gentleman had left
I broke in one hundred years ago
With a dagger tucked in my vest
Legends ago, that I tried to hold
The grey half lie of the hole at night
One, two, three four five
Well we're trapped inside the song
....
Well we're trapped inside the song
trapped inside the song
trapped inside the song
and the nights are so long
