Biography:
You Am I is a four-piece Australian power pop/alternative rock band, fronted by vocalist/guitarist and songwriter Tim Rogers. They were the first Australian band to have three albums consecutively debut at #1 on the ARIA Charts and are renowned for their energetic live shows.
Tim Rogers formed the first version of the band in Sydney, Australia, with his school friend Nick Tischler and his older brother Jaimme in December 1989. This initial line-up was short lived and by the end of 1990 both Nick and Jaimme had left the band.

VERSE 1
Cadd9 A
Every word they sling you hits like your folks have never been kind
Cadd9 A
And the jewels on your apron could use some calamine
Cadd9 A (link)
All the girls and pink faced boys are punching joining the line
CHORUS
F5 F
The old shoe that'd been lived in
A5 A (link)
And a towel you got dry in
F5 F
And there's a drink you can drown in
F5
So choose a blanket to die in
VERSE 2
Cadd9 A
Spill a drink on his front and sells the plans for a morning high rise
Cadd9 A (link)
'Coz there's only so much of string that pay slips can pull and unwind
CHORUS
