Biography:
Incendiary American roots duo Billy Strings & Don Julin tap into the vein of the earliest bluegrass music on their new album Fiddle Tune X, back when bluegrass was a rough-and-tumble art form pouring out of the Appalachian mountains, made with great virtuosity and huge attitude. With just two instruments (guitar and mandolin) and one voice, this duo has been tearing up stages across America and generating huge buzz based on their intense live shows.

[Intro]
A B E Ema7/D# C#mi C#m7/B A B E
[Verse 1]
E Ema7/D#
It's been over thirty days
E7/D A/C#
I've not received your letter
Ami/C D E
My fingernails are chewed down to the bone
E Ema7/D#
So many different ways
E7/D A/C#
I've had to say I'm sorry
Ami/C D E
While I'm left here in this eight by ten alone
[Pre-chorus 1]
A E
It's not the four walls movin' in that tortures me
A B
It's not the cold cement or shivers down my spine
E Ema7/D# E7/D A/C#
It's just the visions in my head that make me paranoid
Ami/C D E
And wonder if I get out will you be mine
[Instrumental Interlude]
E Ema7/D# E7/D A/C# Ami/C D E [x2]
[Verse 2]
E Ema7/D#
I never should have treated you
E7/D A/C#
so bad my love I'm sorry
Ami/C D E
I'm broken, now I can see that now it's true
E Ema7/D# E7/D
My picket fence is turning razor wire
A/C#
And now I'm awaiting trial
Ami/C D E
Things you have to know I did not do
[Pre-chorus 2]
A E
If I could get a word with you I'd be just fine
A B
Or any envelope with both your name and mine
E Ema7/D#
We'd be enough to keep me going
E7/D A/C#
In a world where I'm left knowing that
Ami/C D E
There's something more to live for just outside
[Chorus]
A B
Seems like the last time, feels like the first
E Ema7/D# C#mi B
Though I've had bad days, this has to be my worst
A B D E
I'm left thinking of you dear, while I'm waiting here
[Solo]
E Ema7/D# E7/D A/C# Ami/C D E [x2]
A E A B
E Ema7/D# E7/D A/C# Ami/C D E
Improv on E
[Verse 3]
E Ema7/D#
I haven't seen the sun
E7/D A/C#
Since it rested on your shoulder
Ami/C D E
While we walked along that vacant river side
E Ema7/D#
They carried me away
E7/D A/C#
To a place where I get older
Ami/C D E
If I cannot prove to them you never died
[Chorus 2]
A B
Seems like the last time, feels like the first
E Ema7/D# C#mi B
Though I've had bad days, this has to be my worst
A B D E
I'm left thinking of you dear, while I'm waiting here
[Instrument Interlude]
E Ema7/D# E7/D A/C# Ami/C D E [x2]
[Guitar solo]
A E A B

Though I've had bad days, this has to be my worst

I'm left thinking of you dear, while I'm waiting here
