Wrinkle Neck Mules

Never Was The Bird

by Wrinkle Neck Mules
Wrinkle Neck Mules

Biography:

What the hell is a Wrinkle Neck Mule? A sophomoric phallic reference? Too easy. A pack animal used in the Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico to transport opium to America in the early 1900s? History channel worthy, but wrong. A band of five (or four, depending on the wind) from Richmond, Virginia carrying indie-rockish country music about the land? Eureka. Daily double.

Born somewhere on I-64 between Charlottesville and Richmond, Virginia in late 1999

Never Was the Bird - Wrinkle Neck Mules

Track 9 - I Never Thought It Would Go This Far (2015)
----------------------------------------------

Standard Tuning

[INTRO]
D Em G
D Em G

[VERSE]
D
Headed north out of North Alabama with the
Em G
sun cutting through the clouds
D
And the bruise still feels a little tender from the
Em G
blows that took us down
A
Lights went down and the cameras stopped rolling just as
Em G
soon as we tuned them up
A
Just another kind of common situation that
Em G
follows us in our truck
G D A G
Sometimes it makes you feel like the dawn won’t ever come


[CHORUS]
D Em G
In the hand never was the bird
D Em G Bm
And the bushes were burned down to the black wood
A D G Bm
I never, oh I never
A G
thought it would go this far

D Em G
D Em G

[VERSE]
D
All the sure things and the cigarette deals are
Em G
ashes in the tray
D
Take them out spread them on the ground to
Em G
guide us on our way
A
When you’re looking at the bottom of the barrel better
Em G
soak up the lingering buzz
A
Scrape up the change for the next
Em G
22 to keep you going strong
D A G
That eastern horizon is lighting up

[CHORUS]
D Em G
In the hand never was the bird
D Em G Bm
And the bushes were burned down to the black wood
A D G Bm
I never, oh I never
A G
thought it would go this far

[SOLO]
D C G x4
A

[BRIDGE]
C
Hold up now I see the
D
rising of the fog
C D
Amber beams are ringing true
C
But on the breeze I hear the
D A G
song of the Bush Stone-curlew

[CHORUS]
D Em G
In the hand never was the bird
D Em G Bm
And the bushes were burned down to the black wood
A D G Bm
I never, oh I never
A Em G Bm
thought it would go this far
A D G Bm
I never, oh I never
A G
thought it would go this far

D
