American Saint
By Bleu Edmondson
10/4/2008
Piano intro
D
The Concho Valley is on fire tonight, it's spilling out into the streets
G A
The blessed scream of a newborn dream making love in my backseat
Bm A
All of us together in the glow of the dusty headlights
Bm G A
All the little pretties with the stars in their hair sipping Titos and Crystal Light
Chorus:
D G D G
It's another round of sound checks and train wrecks, the lost boys and the rejects
D A
Fallen angels dancing to the music drifting softly on the Southern wind
D G D G
Talking like the heroes that we wont be, spittin out the game that little Jimmy sold me
D Bm A
Still fighting for each other though it feels like we'll never win
G D
American Saint, American Saint
Now Philly Joe lives west of Alice, the hippy prince of the wild
He got pinched for possession in a real hard land but he never lost his style
He still works the rigs, 6 months out of the year
Old Crow fever, a story to tell and a menthol behind his ear
Chorus
Bm
Now I'm north of Waxahachie
A
I'm wondering where I go from here
Bm
The Baptists say that if I don't change
G A
I won't see next year
Chorus
