Biography:
The Lucksmiths were an influential indie pop band formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1993. The members are Martin Donald (Guitar), Taliesyn 'Tali' White (Vocals, Drums), and Mark Monnone (Bass) and in 2004 they acquired Mid State Orange's guitarist Louis Richter on second guitar. Whilst originating from beach-side Melbourne, the original three members of The Lucksmiths moved to inner Melbourne and fell in love with its charms. The songs Under the Rotunda, The Cassingle Revival and Tmrw Vs Y'Day all demonstrate as much.

Capo 5
G Bm Am
Darling roll the window down
I can't breathe
G Bm Am
And I want to feel the northerly down my sleeve
G Bm Am C D7
I love a sunburnt elbow pointing to the sea
G Bm Am (3x)
C D7
And, darling, can't you find us something on the radio?
A song to pass the time
Sweet and slow
Conversation was forsaken long ago
G
It's getting worse
C
You've hardly said a word
Am G
Since you set eyes on the horizon
G C Am
But I've seen the other side of that ocean there
G
And it can't compare
Em C Am D7
Has it really been a year?
Em C G
How did those days just disappear?
We held our breath across each bridge
Til we were blue
But I wonder if I wished the same as you
Like a ten-year-old pretending
Summer isn't really ending
It's getting worse
You've hardly said a word
Since you set eyes on the horizon
But I've seen the other side of that ocean there
And it can't compare to this
So I'll steal another kiss
Before the sun goes down on this fibrotown
And we give chase
Like all those other days
I suppose it's no surprise
We drive, time flies
Em C Am D7 Em C G
Has it really been a year? Where the hell do we go from here?
