Biography:
The Milk Carton Kids is an American indie folk duo from Eagle Rock, California, United States, consisting of singers and guitarists Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan, who formed the group in early 2011.
A performance by The Milk Carton Kids is a quiet and intricate affair. The duo have enjoyed intently listening audiences across the country and abroad in their respective solo careers, but an even greater sense of urgency and demand of attention is palpable now that they've come together as The Milk Carton Kids.

[Verse 1]
C C/B C/A C/G
I have the weight of the world on my chest
Dm Dm/C Dm/B Dm/G
Well sometimes it feels that way
Em/e Em/B Am Am/e Dm Dm/A G7
For real when my minds at its best I still feel afraid
C C/B C/A C/G
Light turns to dark and my tears turn to ice
Dm Dm/C Dm/B Dm/G
As i turn to my lover and thinking I'm right

I tell only the truth every last little thing that I knew

All the things that I did and all the things that I didn't do

So what began as a fairy tale - We know
Dm Dm/C Dm/B Dm/G
Became very real scary, and at times too much
Em/e Em/B Am Am/e Dm Dm/A G7
But we'd held it together and we doubled down on our luck
C C/B C/A C/G
For all of the times I counted the lines

In your hair as you slept by my side
Em/e Em/B Am Am/e Dm Dm/A
I'm sure that you cried and you cried and you cried, so did I
