Biografia:
Originally the drummer for the punk band The Mekons, formed at Leeds University in 1977, Langford later took up the guitar as other band members left. Since the mid-1980s he has been one of the leaders in incorporating folk and country music into punk rock. Over the years, he has released a number of solo recordings as well as recordings with other bands outside of The Mekons, most notably the Waco Brothers, which he co-founded after moving to Chicago in the early '90s.

NOTHING TO SHOW Jon Langford (With Richard Buckner)
G
G Am
Nothing to show for the things that I've done
Am D C
There were places to go and I had to choose this one
G Am
Well I had some dreams in My head, had some tricks up my sleeve
Am C G
Now I'll be lucky to leave with my life, yes Ill be lucky to leave
G Am
Over The line and into your bed
Am D C
Where desire and shame consume like a flame, and wise men might fear to tread
G Am
You closed my mouth with a touch, I said too much
Am C G
Oh you tried to turn back the tide, you didn't want to know
Chorus:
Am D G C
You can find me here where the city lights burn
Am D G
The stars right out of the sky
Am D G
And the birds sing all night as the traffic rolls by
Am D
loosing my name like the millions who came
G C
just to say that they were right
Am C
We'll be lucky to leave, lucky to leave with our lives
Am C G
We'll be lucky to leave, lucky to leave with our lives
G Am
Nothing to show since it all went wrong
Am D C
and nowhere to go but the streets that I'm walking on
G Am
I had changed horse in midstream, i went down like a stone
Am C G
Thought Id slip off the hook, now Im battered and cooked, gutted and boned
Chorus
G Am
