Biography:
The Wisconsin state motto is simple - “Forward.” Milwaukee’s own .357 String Band epitomizes this spirit. Established in 2004, they have brought their inimitably relentless style of Americana from the West Coast of the United States to as far east as Serbia, playing over 600 shows in 10 different countries, and honing their razor sharp sound and adrenaline-fueled live show with a grueling tour schedule.

[Verse 1]
Em G
I'm feelin' so low down and the rain it just won't let up
Em G
It's a demon in my head and the devil in my cup
Em C
Things keep on moving forward but I keep falling down
And I said
[Chorus]
G D Em
Oh Adilene,
C G D Em
You're the only girl for me
C Am
So I pour another round
C
As the evening sun goes down
G
Wherever I'm hangin' round, my love,
D G
'Till I return to thee
[Verse 2]
Em G
I been puttin' them spirits down, to try to keep my spirits up
Em G
I got a sweetheart home alone, she puts the fever in my blood
Em C
And I gotta' keep on movin' but tell her I'm coming home
And I said
[Chorus]
G D Em
Oh Adilene,
C G D Em
You're the only girl for me
C Am
So I raise another glass
C
Pray the future forgets the past
G
And that that day might come at last, my love,
D G
When I return to thee
[Verse 3]
Em G
Well it's one more honkey tonk and it's one more hazy night
Em G
It's one more Maker's Mark and it's one more lonely fight
Em C
It's one more sad song then I'll drive on through the night
And I said
[Chorus]
G D Em
Oh Adilene,
C G D Em
You're the only girl for me
C Am
So I drink to who I was
C
It won't bring me peace; what does?
G
Well, not a thing my love,
D G
'Till I return to thee
Em G
I'm feelin' so low down and the rain it just won't let up
