Biography:
The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster (often referred to as just 'Eighties Matchbox') were a rock band from Brighton, England, formed in 1999. The band's sound is dark and blues-inspired, with wild vocals and deep basslines. They call it psychosis rock.
The band comprised of Guy McKnight, Andy Huxley, Marc Norris, Sym Gharial, and Tom Diamantopoulo, until May 2005, in which Andy Huxley "decided to leave due to a decrease in musical similarities" and was replaced by Rich Fownes. Marc and Rich have now both left the band.

(as first verse)
Darlin my darlin now what should I do
No love from my father because I'm a daughter
Didn't chose this life but this life chose me
Feel uninvited and now I can be

Wish I could drown in this foul tasting bitter
Drunk on the blood 40 days and nights knowing
Red is the only colour that i see
Chorus
This is as close as i can get to the chords and lyrics.Hope it serves u well!
Enjoy!
