Ryan Bingham & The Dead Horses - The Poet
Junky Star
Standard Tuning
AmAs I get long gone
Out where the wind blows
C
The desert sky she flys by for miles
AmAs I keep walkin’ people keep talkin’
C
About things they’ve never scene or done,
AmHomeless sleep in the park
Sweet hearts kiss in the dark
C
I myself just move on through town
AmThe moon keeps on shinin’
The rich keep on dinin’
C
Oh how i love the highway sun
Dm F C
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood
AmCoyotes are callin’
Stars keep on fallin’
C
Your mother she won’t be around
AmA feather blows down the road
The wind is cold and your wings are broke
C
And your heart is livin’ on the run
AmLonely and wasted, her eyes replaced it
C
I don’t think I’ll make another mile
AmFrom town to town I run
My horse ain’t to drunk
C
The daylight is singin to the sun
Dm F C
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood
AmJuke box is barkin’
I’m just getting started
C
I’ve yet to see the light of day
AmSenoritias lose it to the mariachi music
C
Cause new york is too far away
AmThe band keeps on playin’
With beer bottles breakin’
C
The barmaid I heard pulled a gun
AmPoet takes a pistol, points at this sister
C
Says honey your day is done
Dm F C
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood
