Biography:
"...Baltimore’s The Sterling Sisters, a group that makes some obvious nods to 16 Horsepower and other Old-Testament invoking Goth-country bands. [With their] fiddle, guitar, banjo, drums, and a bassist endowed with a rafter-shaking operatic voice, the sound is full and commanding...

[Verse 1]
A D A D
I kissed you under stars and stripes
Bm
Soaked in golden lantern light
E
Right as the sun rose
A D
As you held me in your arms
A D
I felt that you were the one
Bm
I wish I'd always known
E
I think a new love has found home
[Chorus]
A E
I died, Lord I swear that I died
G D
When first I, I laid eyes on you
A E
And when I try to make sense of my life
G D
It just doesn't seem fitting without you
A E
Well, I'm no child, but I sure ain't no man
G D
I've got doubts and a poor understanding
A E
I can't give you much except all of my love
G D
And a promise I'll never abandon
[Verse 2]
A D A D
You took a picture of me the morning after
Bm E
To capture the first breath of our old souls' love
A D
As your blue eyes shone brightly
A D
You called me red, white, and beauty
Bm
You said I'd never grow old
E
And If I did you'd come along
A D
I know I still make you nervous
A D
So just smoke all my cigarettes
Bm
And remember the first time
E
You kissed me that dawn
[Chorus]
A E
I died, Lord I swear that I died
G D
When first I, I laid eyes on you
A E
And when I try to make sense of my life
G D
It just doesn't seem fitting without you
A E
Well, I'm not a child, but I'm hardly a man
G D
I've got doubts and a poor understanding
A E
I can't give you much except all of my love
G D
And a promise I'll never abandon
