She was raised in the small city of Saco, Maine, and played her first performances there. She was originally a drummer, but later changed instruments to acoustic guitar.

Suggested chord forms for picking - see below
The chorus ends on an ambigous chord. A is the bass,
but it contains both C, D and G. I've notated it as Gsus4/A;
but you could also interpret it as, for example, "Am7addD" .
You can also (reasonably well) omit the C note and play an ordinary A7sus4.
You can vary the D chord on lines 1 and 2 of the verse; Dsus4 or Dadd9 is ok.

Gmaj7 G/B Cadd9 Dadd9
She has heard him lie to them
Em D Cadd9 D
When she asks him, "Do you lie to me?" – well,
Gmaj7 G/B Cadd9 D
He says he's tired of the third degree

She don't know exactly what that means, if he's –
Gmaj7 G/B Cadd9 D
Not ready now or he'll never be
[Chorus 3]
Gmaj7 C/G G
And the tru - u - th is
Gmaj7 C/G G
