American Saint(Chords)

	        
Intro D G A Bm 

D 
The Concho Valley is on fire tonight 
A 
It's spilling out into the streets  
G 
The blessed scream of a newborn dream 
A 
Making love in my back seat 
Bm                                          A 
All of us together in the glow of the dusty headlights 
Bm 
All the little pretties with the stars in their hair 
G 
Sipping Titos and Crystal Light 

Chorus 

D                                           A 
It's another round of sound checks and the train wrecks 
D                     Em7 
The lost boys and the rejects 
G 
Fallen angels dancing to the music drifting softly on the  
A 
Southern wind 
D                              A 
Talking like the heroes that we wont be 
G                                       A 
Spitting out the game that little Jimmy sold me 
Bm                                               A 
Fighting for each other it feels like will never win 
               Em7 
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 

Bm 
Now I'm north of Waxahachie  
A 
Wondering where i go from here 
Bm 
The Baptists say if I don't change 
G 
I won't see next year 

Don't know if this is 100% right but thats how I play it. 
2nd verse chords same as first
