Biography:
The Lucksmiths were an influential indie pop band formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1993. The members are Martin Donald (Guitar), Taliesyn 'Tali' White (Vocals, Drums), and Mark Monnone (Bass) and in 2004 they acquired Mid State Orange's guitarist Louis Richter on second guitar. Whilst originating from beach-side Melbourne, the original three members of The Lucksmiths moved to inner Melbourne and fell in love with its charms. The songs Under the Rotunda, The Cassingle Revival and Tmrw Vs Y'Day all demonstrate as much.

Intro: F# B C#m B G#m C#m Eadd9 B x 2
F# B C#m B
It was summer when she moved in
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
And it was winter when she moved out again
F# B C#m B
And the sky was usually blue
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
And the single bed was big enough for two
F# B C#m B
It's funny the things that stay with you
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
Her jewellery on the table and the smell of her perfume
F# B C#m B
The candle wax on the carpet, singing in the supermarket
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
And the wall paper in her bedroom
Eadd9 C#m B
I'll never understand how it happened like this
Eadd9 C#m B
I drew an open hand and she drew a fist
Eadd9 C#m B F#
I drew an arrow and a heart, she drew a razor and a wrist
Break: F# B C#m B G#m C#m Eadd9 B x 2
F# B
She said 'I love you when it's sunny'
C#m B
But the sun refused to shine
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
And I was crucified on the clothes line
F# B C#m B
She stole a magazine from the laundromat
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
Did it weigh upon her conscience as it lay upon her lap
Eadd9 C#m B
The body is willing but the mind is weak
Eadd9 C#m B
The champagne is chilling and the wine is cheap
Eadd9 C#m B F#
The milk was always spilling and we cried ourselves to sleep
Break: F# B C#m B G#m C#m Eadd9 B x 2
F# B C#m B
It was summer when she moved in
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
And it was winter when she moved house again
F# B C#m B
The boxes on the floor
G#m C#m Eadd9 B
And the note that she pinned to my door
Eadd9 B
This house is made of sticks
Eadd9 B
This house is made of straw
Eadd9 B
This house is made of bricks
Eadd9 B
This house is made of weatherboard
