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
EmG 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 GD
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 GD
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood
Em GD
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood
