Biography:
The Delines are a retro country band from Portland led by vocalist Amy Boone (The Damnations TX), alongside the keyboard work of Jenny Conlee (The Decemberists) as well as fellow Portlanders Sean Oldham and songwriter/novelist Willy Vlautin (Richmond Fontaine) and on pedal steel, Tucker Jackson (Minus 5) founded in 2012.
The name “The Delines” came to Willy in a dream. He claims we were playing a nice venue somewhere and it was written across the kick drum.

Introduction: Dbmaj7, Ab, Dbmaj7, Ab
Dbmaj7 Ab
The golden light from the oil rigs at night
Dbmaj7 Ab
I can see them of the coast
Dbmaj7 Ab
Twenty three more days he'll be away
Bbm Eb
It'll be a week before he even knows
Cm7 Bbm7
We've been friends since we were little kids
Cm7 Bbm7 Eb
But Andy's spark blew out if it ever did exist
Dbmaj7 Ab Dbmaj7 Ab
When the ga stomes and the alarms go I'll be a thousand miles away
Dbmaj7 Ab
He'll fall apart but at least he'll never know
Bbm Eb
That I've been living a lie half my life or more
Cm7 Bbm7
And every time I'd see his sister or his mom would stop by
Cm7 Bbm7
I'd feel like I was cutting in or being cut by a knife
Eb Dbmaj7
To live without love is easier than lying day and night
Interlude: Dbmaj7, Ab, Dbmaj7, Ab, Bbm7, Eb, Bbm7, Eb
Fm7 Cm7
And if I end up in Atlanta broken in some single room
Fm7 Cm7
Or stuck at a register at some dollar store
Bbm Eb
At least I wont be cursed
Dbmaj7 Ab
I'm seeing the golden light from the oil rigs at night
Dbmaj7 Ab
And never once dreaming my man is home
Dbmaj7 Ab
I'm not saying he's not a good man
Dbmaj7 Cm7 Bbm7
I'm just so tired of living my life a lie
Dbmaj7 Cm7 Bbm7
I've covered up my heart for so many years
Eb
Don't even know if it survived
Dbmaj7 Ab
The golden light from the oil rigs at night
Dbmaj7 Ab
I can see them of the coast
Dbmaj Ab
I can see them of the coast
Ending: Dbmaj7, Ab....
