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

[Verse]
A G
Cut through San Gabriel and then head home
D A E
My woman's alone in our double it looks like its trouble again
E A G
After the carnival sick from the cotton
G D
Telling my friends I’d forgotten my rhythm
D A A7
But still there just giving me hell
[Chorus]
D A
Well, its alright - I'm back at home
D A
It's alright - I ain’t sleeping alone
F#m E D
It's alright - the darkest of hours comes just before daylight
A
[Verse]
A G
And out on the avenue the girls are performing
D
Soon they’ll be swarming around me
D A E
And breaking the boundaries of comfort
A G
Uppers and alcohol the pair don’t mix
G D
Things have been bad but they’re fixing to turn
D A A7
In spite of all your concern, I’ll be fine
[Chorus]
D A
Well, its alright - I'm back at home

It's alright - I ain’t sleeping alone

Won’t be long
[Chorus]
E D A
Cause, its alright - I'm back at home
D A
It's alright - I ain’t drinking alone
F#m E D
It's alright - the darkest of hours comes just before daylight
F#m E D
It's alright - the darkest of hours comes just before daylight
