Biography:
Drawing inspiration from each successive wave of garage rock, The Rare Occasions put their own dark spin on retro. The LA-via-Providence group meshes angular guitar riffs with sweet indie pop melodies, from the blistering psych-anthem “Dysphoric” (Feelers) to the dreamlike “Bug Eyes” (Futureproof). This variability and depth of styles, layered with lyrical themes of existentialism and self-reflection, are what both define The Rare Occasions and set them apart.

Tuning: Standard
Lyrics from: http://rareoccasionslyrics.blogspot.com/2012/08/silhouettes.html
These chords are straight from the band, so this ought to be perfect!
F
F Daug Gm7 C7b9
Gingerly our silhouettes walk parallel
F Daug Gm7 C7b9
Beneath a sea of desperate electric energy
Dm Ebdim
And in spite of my greatest resistance
Dm Ebdim
The feeling is marked with persistence
Dm Ebdim
I'm drowning in your existence
Gm7 C7b9
Cascading about, we will soon figure out that we're
F Daug Gm7 C7b9 Gm7
Aimlessly pacing the streets just to be together
F F7
Bb Bbm
I'll write you a thunderstorm
Dm F7
So forlorn it echoes and
Bb Bbm
Shatters everything you fear
Dm C7
You're too dear to let go
F Daug Gm7 C7b9
Fervent clouds; through bleary eyes and weary minds we
F Daug Gm7 C7b9
Think aloud as distant reflections pass us by
Dm Ebdim
And with you, girl, my mind's in a clamor
Dm Ebdim
Resonant words are but stammers
Dm Ebdim
I think I just might be enamored
Gm7 C7b9
Its times like these that I notice the breeze is
F Daug Gm7 C7b9 Gm7
Drifting 'round like two souls drifting around tonight
F F7
Bb Bbm
Streetlights cut through the night mist
Dm F7
A light kiss: extinguish
Bb Bbm
The fire building inside me
Dm F7
Just guide me to your lips and
Bb Bbm
I'll write you a thunderstorm
Dm F7
So forlorn it echoes and
Bb Bbm
Shatters everything you fear
Dm F7
You're too dear to let go
Bb Bbm
If all of the earth were to disappear
Dm F7
I'd still be walking around with you here
Bb Bbm
Dreaming of darkness far away
Dm C7
Just relay your smile
~Thanks hah
