Biography:
Turin Brakes are a modern folk pop duo comprising two friends Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, hailing from Balham, London, signed to Cooking Vinyl.
Turin Brakes have often been compared to many of the New Acoustic Movement's bands spawned in the late 90's such as Elbow, Starsailor, I Am Kloot (who were a support band for Turin Brakes on their Ether Song tour) and the Norwegian band the Kings of Convenience.
Their debut album "The Optimist LP" (2001) was nominated for the Mercury Prize that same year.

C Am Em G
Have you ever had your heart break?
C Am Em G
Have you ever tasted that sweet smoke?
C Am Em G
It comes in like a friend and it takes you by the hand
C Am Em G
And it throws you from the boat down to the old cold sand
C Am Em G
Have you ever held hands with harm?
C Am Em G
Would you recognize the devil's charm?
C Am Em G
It's a loser's fight when the truth hits like lightning
C Am Em G
By the time that you have read this I'll be gone
D
It's a sad fact
D
That the old map
C G
Can never tell you where to go
D
I'm an old soul
D
In a young shell
C G
I broke down at the crossroads
C Am Em G
Have you ever wandered alone?
C Am Em G
For so very long that alone becomes your home?
C Am Em G
It's a beautiful place, but a matter of taste
C Am Em G
Yeah loneliness is subtle and strong
D
It's a sad fact
D
That the old map
C G
Can never Show you where to go
D
I'm an old soul
D
In a young shell
C G
I broke down at the crossroads
Em G D C
Silence on my radi-i-i-o
Em G D C
Silence wraps around me
Em G D C
Silence everywhere I go
Em
The door slams in my face
G
I think it’s time to leave this place
