I can't believe how much this sounds like the studio recording ! Superb stuff neighborinos

[chrisbct]

Man, crisp sound, solid song writing, no fear to simply invent a variant of traditional modern sound the way they darned well feel like it.  And the result is just startling and satisfying.

I don't know how I found this, but I love it. I would have been obsessed with this group in high school, but now I'm old, and I try not to obsess over bands anymore.

[ReedSilverstein]

The opening tab is D, E, G, F#, D, E, G, D (one octave higher)
I'm still trying to figure out that cool sound she makes in replacement with the octave higher D.

It's crazy and amazing how much girlpool has changed over the years

[arohavalentine]

LYRICS
7: 45 in the morning
I'm leaving my house
Trying not to think
Of all the ways this place has changed
Walked around my neighborhood
One hundred, one million, billion, trillion times
Every crack on the sidewalk
Below my feet
Green, black and blue trashcans
Meet me after school
I just miss how it felt standing next to you
Wearing matching dresses before the world was big
I just miss how it felt standing next to you
Wearing matching dresses before the world was big
My brain's like a rolling snowball
I'm a firetruck
Trying not to think of all the ways
My mind has changed
Mom and dad I love you
Do I show it enough?
I just miss how it felt standing next to you
Wearing matching dresses before the world was big
I just miss how it felt standing next to you
Wearing matching dresses before the world was big
I just miss how it felt standing next to you
Wearing matching dresses before the world was big
I just miss how it felt standing next to you
Wearing matching dresses before the world was big
