Ryan Bingham - The Poet

ryan bingham & the dead horses – the poet
junky star
standard tuning

Bm
as i get long gone
out where the wind blows
D
the desert sky she flys by for miles
Bm
as i keep walkin people keep talkin
D
about things theyve never scene or done ,
Bm
homeless sleep in the park
sweet hearts kiss in the dark
D
i myself just move on through town
Bm
the moon keeps on shinin
the rich keep on dinin
D
oh how i love the highway sun
Em G D
out to the back , the poet writes his songs in blood

Bm
coyotes are callin
stars keep on fallin
D
your mother she wont be around
Bm
a feather blows down the road
the wind is cold and your wings are broke
D
and your heart is livin on the run
Bm
lonely and wasted , her eyes replaced it
D
i dont think ill make another mile
Bm
from town to town i run
my horse aint to drunk
D
the daylight is singin to the sun
Em G D
out to the back , the poet writes his songs in blood

Bm
juke box is barkin
im just getting started
D
ive yet to see the light of day
Bm
senoritias lose it to the mariachi music
D
cause new york is too far away
Bm
the band keeps on playin
with beer bottles breakin
D
the barmaid i heard pulled a gun
Bm
poet takes a pistol , points at this sister
D
says honey your day is done
Em G D
out to the back , the poet writes his songs in blood
Em G D
out to the back , the poet writes his songs in blood
