Biografia:
Okkervil River é um grupo de folk formado por amigos de segundo grau em Meriden. Após cada um tomar sua direção para a faculdade, todos se mudaram para a cidade de Austin, no Texas, para morarem juntos e formarem a banda. A formação incial contém o compositor Will Sheff, o baixista e bandolinista Zach Thomas e o baterista Seth Warren. Na banda em que a guitarra lidera o som e possui elementos perdidos do pop, há, na voz doce e suave de Will Sheff, letras sobre barcos, livros, referências a artistas como David Bowie e R.

[Intro]
Em A x2
[Verse 1]
D A
He gets close, but I choke
F#m Bm
Take your shit, take your clothes
A G
And get out of my home
A
I want you to love me
Em
Or I want you long gone
A
You say your real name is John
[Verse 2]
D
Hey, thanks John
A F#m
Go sing songs, go rock on
Bm A G
Roll your crew on down the road
A
To the next sold out show
Em
Think you can get up above me?
A
Well, I want you to know
[Verse 3]
G A
You're a figure of fun to everyone
F#m Bm A G
'Neath the lone star, neon blue broken sign
A
They wish they were you
Em
Like I wish you were mine
A
What a dumb thing to do
[Verse 4]
G A
How come I shout "Goodbye"
F#m Bm A
When god knows I just want to
G D
Make this white lie big enough
A Em
To climb inside with you
[Instrumental]
A Em A
[Verse 5]
D A
Another day, lost and gone
F#m Bm A G
Clipping pages from the news for the senator's son
A
Well, he just strolls through the lobby
Em
And glad-hands everyone
A
Another day, tossed and done
[Verse 6]
D A
I go home, take off clothes
F#m Bm A G
Smoke a bowl, watch a whole TV movie
A
I was supposed to be writing
Em
The most beautiful poems
A
And completely revealing
Em
Divine mysteries up close
A
I can't say that I'm feeling
Em
All that much at all
A
At 27 years old
[Verse 7]
G A
I'm discussed with desire by the guys who conspire
F#m Bm A G
At the only decent bar in town
A
And they drink MGD's
Em
And they wish they had me
A
Like I wish I had fire
Em
What a sad way to be
A
What a girl who got tired
[Verse 8]
G A F#m Bm A
So, I wonder who you got your hooks in tonight
G D A
Was she happy to be hooked and on your arm?
Did she feel alive?
Em A x4
Her head all light
