Biografía:
Smog o Bill Callahan, músico estadounidense, nació en Silver Spring, Maryland. Se puede considerar el precursor del lo-fi, género que nace a partir del rock alternativo.
Comenzó grabando en su casa, luego trabajó con Jim O'Rourke productor de Red Apple Falls de 1997 y Knock Knock de 1999, y en el que participaron músicos relacionados con el sello Drag City, pero después, con el disco Dongs of Sevotion en el 2000, vuelve a un estilo de trabajo más sencillo.

¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
Please remove my previous version and replace it with this one.
Some chords were wrong (it's Am7 instead of Em[2] and
F instead of Dm[2]).
I have also corrected the part, where he sings
"My cattle bears it all away...".
Thanks, Maceo

__________________________________________
The real people went away
Em Am
But I'll find a better word, someday
Em
Leaving only me and my dreams
Am (5x) Am7 (3x) Em
My cattle....... and a resonator
I drove all the beast down right under your nose
The lumbering footloose power
Am (5x)
The bull and the rose
Am7 (3x) Em
Don't touch them don't try to hurt them
Am (5x) Am7 (3x) Em
My cattle....................ts ts
C Am C Am
I drove them by the crops and thought the crops were lost
C Am Em
I consoled myself with rudimentary thoughts
C Am C Am
And I set my watch against the city clock
Em
It was way off
||:
G C C/B Am C
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
G
It takes a strong, strong
C C/B Am C
It breaks a strong, strong mind :||
G C
And anything less, anything less
C/B Am C
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time
Em Am Em Am
But the pain and frustration, is not mine
Em Am Em
It belongs to the cattle, through the valley
Dm (or D5 etc.)
And when my cattle turns on me
Am Em
I was knocked back flat
Dm Am Em
I was knocked out cold for one clack of the train track
Dm Am Em
Then I rose a colossal hand buried, buried in sand
Am Em
I rose like a drover
Am Em
For I am in the end a drover
Am Em
A drover by trade
Am Em
When my cattle turns on me
Am Em Am (4x) Am7 (4x)
I am a drover, double fold
Am7
My cattle bears it all away for me and everyone
one, one, one,
F
one, one, one, one,
Am7
one, one, one, one,
F Am F
one, one, one, one. Yo!
(as above)
G C C/B Am C
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
G
It takes a strong, strong
C C/B Am C
It breaks a strong, strong mind
G C
And anything less, anything less
C/B Am C Em
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time
