Biography:
22-20s were a band from Lincolnshire with indie, blues and folk influences. They formed in 2003 and released their self-titled debut album (22-20s) the following year. The band's name comes from the Skip James song '22-20 Blues'.
The success of the single 'Shoot Your Gun' and the track 'Devil In Me' shot the band to prominence after its use in a Vauxhall commercial.
In early 2006, after four years together touring, with difficulties recording their follow-up album and a desire to change musical direction, the band mutually agreed to split up.

I'm getting sick of everyone I'm with
Em7 B7 C G
I'm getting sick of keeping positive

and I'm getting bored of putting on a smile

and I've been so good, but it doesn't do me much good
A7 C9
yeah, I've been good, but it doesn't pay like it should

Lord, It's so hard to keep your head,

when you've got everything to lose

baby just brings bad news as she goes running through
I'm getting sick of cleaning up the mess
and I'm getting sick of this helplessness
and I'm getting bored of feeling insecure
and I'm getting bored of looking at this bedroom door
I'm getting bored of this song she sings that I've heard a million times before
Lord, It's so hard to keep your head,
when you've got everything to lose
baby just brings bad news as she goes running through
Lord, it's so hard to keep your friends
when you own everything you choose
so baby just sings the blues to just anyone who seems to care
Break - blues solo in E, first position at 12th fret.
Lord, It's so hard to keep your head,
when you've got everything to lose
baby just brings bad news as she goes running through
Lord, it's so easy when you're on the floor
when you've got nothing left to lose
so baby just cries for food off anyone who won't refuse.
