Biography:
The Damn Quails are a musical group that thrive on the spontaneity of live performance and the ethereal connection between players that happens on stage. Their performances are a living, ever-changing experience that captivates crowds of all ages from all walks of life.
The Damn Quails are the bastard child of a thousand fathers and a thousand mothers, most notably The Band and The Black Crowes. They jam, they sway, they drawl, they swagger ...most of all, they make you feel. ...but my heart's another story.

Intro -x2-: G Am C C7 G
Verse 1
G
Well, a truest test of a man's good name
Am
is Acceptance of failure and losing a game,
C C7 G
with a smile and a handshake , quiet every building rage
G
I got knocked around in a real small town,
Am
and they poked and and they prodded and marched me around,
C C7 G
for a laugh at the snow, try to tear a good man's soul
Chorus:
G
For a fool's gold, a beggars bargain
Am
too much time, space to get lost in,
C C7 G
its one for the road, two if you can let it go.
G
Blood's thick, but waters deeper,
Am
the wine works fine, but the wiskeys cheaper
C C7 G
Now turn it around, quick before your Sun goes down.
Verse 2:
G
Well, I see you found yourself a damn fine game,
Am
you got lines on your mind and ounces to say,
C C7 G
but it's okay, we've both seen our darker days.
G
But it's like you've never saw a sucker before,
Am
been alive on the side of you bed room door,
C C7 G
with an ear on the phone, beggin just to let it go.
