drunk as dragons

verse 1
Dm C
the bar closed that night i offered her a ride
A# A Dm
she said , take me to your car
Dm C
but i lost my license on a dui
A# A Dm
i took her away on my handle bars
C G
she called me don quixote
C G
quite ironic i suppose
F
we were drunk as dragons
C A# A Dm
feast on the fermented flesh of the fallen heroes

verse 2
the place she was staying was the garden of eden
i stopped at the gates
a noisy neon sign buzzed and shined
advertising hourly rates
i asked her if she could make it
she wasn’t walking so well
she said , don’t let me die alone in an interstate town
in the bathtub of a sleaze pit motel

verse 3
i must confess i was staring at her chest
on her heart was a new tattoo
some folks are religious , me i’m just superstitious
i cringed it said , what would jesus do
she asked me if i believed
in heaven , hell , redemption , or sin
well it’s hard for a man to believe in much of nothing
’til an angel’s laying under him
