Biography:
Son Volt is an alternative country group which formed in 1994 in St. Louis, Missouri. The band currently consists of Jay Farrar (vocals, guitar), Chris Masterson (guitar), Andrew Duplantis (bass, vocals), Mark Spencer (keyboards) and Dave Bryson (drums).

Son Volt formed after the breakup of the band Uncle Tupelo, owing to the simmering creative differences between songwriters Farrar and Jeff Tweedy.

***On the record, Farrar plays this in an alternate tuning (a la Nick Drake). However, this is how the band
plays it live. These chords are taken from watching Farrar play the song live in Asheville, NC on 3/14/2017.

[Intro]
Em A D G/B Em A D
[Verse]
D G/B
Don't get down when the cavalry doesn't arrive
Em D
That's only in Hollywood and they didn't get it right
D Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay
A D
Light after darkness, that is the way
[Verse]
D G/B
The air is colder closer to the ground
Em D
Find your footing and leave your doubts
D Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay
A D
Light after darkness, that is the way
[Verse]
D G/B
Promise the world to each other, to obey
Em D
In the end it matters, it's worth the fight
D Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay
A D
Light after darkness, that is the way
[Verse]
D G/B
We all move mountains that stand in the way
Em D
Just part of being here, making things right
D Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay
A D
Light after darkness, that is the way
