Words and Music by Craig Finn
[Intro]
Am C G Am
Am C G Am
[Verse]
Am C
Someone saw something just east of here
G Am
I came up the Western pier
Am C
There's one thing you should know about
G Am
Christ is watching me right now
Am C
Someone saw something and they shot it down
G Am
I spent seven months in another town
Am C
At night I'd walk down on the beach
G Am
One night I saw them watching me
Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C
They rolled up. They put the cuffs on
Fmaj7 C G
Then they drove me deep into the valley
Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C
The just judge looked me over and said I'm sorry
Fmaj7 C G
You don't have to keep running
Fmaj7
But you best be leaving
[Verse]
Am C
You can't take away all the parts of you
G Am
That make you do the things you do
Am C
The girls that live inside my heart
Am G
Keep coming up the boulevard
Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C
They roll up. They pledge their love
Fmaj7 C G
And then they drive you halfway to a breakdown
Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7
The just judge looked me over and said I'm sorry
C G
Love's been such a letdown
Fmaj7
Let's proceed with the shakedown
[Outro]
Am (hold)
Jesus is a judge and He's kind and He's just
G Am
Forgives us for our avarice and lust
Am C
I don't even know what's east of here
G Am
I came up the Western pier
