Biography:
Soul Asylum is an American alternative rock band formed in the summer of 1981 by Minneapolis high school friends Dan Murphy, Karl Mueller, and Dave Pirner. The band (named Loud Fast Rules up until 1984) quickly became frontrunners of American college rock, following in the tradition of fellow Minnesota bands Hüsker Dü and The Replacements.
Landing their first record deal with Twin/Tone in 1984, Soul Asylum recorded a total of four albums for the local label: Say What You Will.

“Nothing to write home about”
From “Let Your Dim light shine” album
B A
Dear mother, what can I say?
G A B
It's been so long since I went away
B A
And, yes, I miss the comforts of home
G A B
But I guess I'm better off on my own
A B
No one told me people could be so cruel
A B
Nobody told me about any of this in school
A
Still nobody understands
G
The things that I don't understand
D
I've nothing to write home about
C
Nothing I have figured out
D
Still I have the same old doubts
Em
Nothing to write home about
Dear John, that ain't my name
I'm just hanging 'round to take the blame
I'm filled with guilt, I'm filled with shame
Too much or not enough, it's all the same
And no one wants to talk about the loss
No one wants to talk about the cost
And everyone just looks away
Just like any other day
I've nothing to write home about
Nothing I have figured out
Still I have the same old doubts
Nothing to write home about
Em C G
Who can teach me how to change my ways?
Em C D
Who will come and save the day?
Em C G
Who will tell me what to say
Am C
When there's nothing left to say?
B_A_G_A_B_G_A_B
Nobody told me about any of this in school
No one told me I'd be taken for a fool
And everyone just looks away
And tries to make it through the day
I've nothing to write home about
Nothing I have figured out
Still I have the same old doubts
Nothing to write home about
Enjoy the song !!!
