Biography:
Sons of Bill are a country rock band from Charlottesville, Virginia, that formed in the fall of 2005. At its core are brothers James, Sam, and Abe Wilson, the sons of Bill Wilson, the source of the band's name. The brothers returned to Virginia from very different paths in life to form a band based in the country music they grew up learning from their father while bringing along their interests in rock and jazz to influence their sound.
James Wilson plays acoustic guitar and is the band's lead vocalist.

Intro Chords:
C-Am-G
C
I’ m lonesome there, out in the midnight air
F G C
Driving around wonderin if I’ll make it through
C
These lonesome nights still prayin for daylight
F G C
And wishin to hell that I could just come home to you
And my radio’s on and every single song
Tells the same old lonesome story of you and me
And its ringin in my head those words that you said
I guess some things they are never meant to be
Am F C-C/B-Am
Just smell the sweet soft southern smell of magnolia
F G
And hear the wind, it’s calling out your name
Am F C-C/B-Am
And just another broken heart lost in Georgia
F G C
And falling like a sweet Savannah rain
Repeat intro part
And its hard to be a man and its hard to give a damn
And I guess that there ain’t nothing else left to say
Cause whats done cant be undone, and there aint nowhere to run
But it hurts too goddamn much to stay
Chorus
And these memories still remain of chasing headlights in the rain
And these shifting gears won't ease my worried mind
And there ain't nothin left to do but howl at the moon
And drive until I see that morning sunrise
Chorus
