Piano intro
D
The Concho Valley is on fire tonight, it's spilling out into the streets
GA
The blessed scream of a newborn dream making love in my backseat
BmA
All of us together in the glow of the dusty headlights
BmGA
All the little pretties with the stars in their hair sipping Titos and Crystal Light
Chorus:
DGDG
It's another round of sound checks and train wrecks, the lost boys and the rejects
DA
Fallen angels dancing to the music drifting softly on the Southern wind
DGDG
Talking like the heroes that we wont be, spittin out the game that little Jimmy sold me
DBmA
Still fighting for each other though it feels like we'll never win
GD
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
GA
I won't see next year
Chorus
