Biography:
Whiskeytown was an alt-country band from Raleigh, North Carolina founded in 1994 and fronted by Ryan Adams along with violinist Caitlin Cary. The band produced a number of albums before ultimately parting ways in 2000.
Other members of the group included guitarists Mike Daly and Phil Wandscher, bassist Steve Grothmann and drummer Skillet Gilmore.
Adams and Cary have publicly talked of reuniting Whiskeytown on multiple occasions, as recently as 2005, but as of yet, nothing new has materialized.

Intro: Dsus2
Dsus2 G6 add9 A sus4
Know the cabs here they cant run down to your house
G6 add9 A sus4 G6 add9 Dsus2
Sometimes Ill sit and wish I were somewhere else
Dsus2 G6 add9 A sus4
So lets dim the daylights for us sweethearts that we are
G6 add9 A sus4 G6 add9 Dsus2
Sometimes I find myself still lying in your arms
A sus4/E F# m7#5 G6 add9
All the sweethearts of the world
A sus4 A sus4/E
Are out dancing in the places
F# m7#5 G6 add9 A sus4
Where me and all my friends go to hide our faces
Dsus2 (Descending bass line F# to A to D on D string)
Avenues run one way
Dsus2 (Descending bass line F# to A to D on D string)
Streets they run the same

Something in the air here
Dsus2
Still keeps me away
