Biography:
The Connells are an American band from Raleigh, North Carolina. They play a guitar-oriented, melodic, power pop style of rock music, with introspective lyrics that reflect the American South.
Guitarist Mike Connell formed the band in 1984, along with his brother David Connell on bass, Doug MacMillan on vocals, and future filmmaker John Schultz on drums. This initial four-person line-up was quickly supplemented by the addition of George Huntley on second guitar, keyboards, and vocals.

[Intro]
A G D A X2
[Verse 1]
A G D A
Oh, you never learned the 'Whens' and 'Wheres' and 'Whys'
A G D A G
And I still believe that you were dying to be everything
D A
To everyone and for all time
A G D A
Ah, the golden boy did you stop trying?

[Verse 2]
A G D A
Did it turn out stale, or did it simply lose its wonder?
A G D A
Could you hold it up from out and under?
A G D A
Does the distance seem to dim-dumb-dim your memory?
A G D A
Does the distance seem to fell the hunger?
[Chorus]
A G
So, you're left with your thoughts and where do you go
D A
Out the window or an open door
A G
And once you believed they could keep you awake
D A
It's so deceiving
A G
So, you talk to yourself and what do you know
D A
You answer back with a, "Don't say so"
A G
And once you believed you had something to say
D
It's so.....
