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 they�ve 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 won�t 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 don�t think I�ll make another mile
Bm
From town to town I run
My horse ain�t 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�
I�m just getting started
D
I�ve 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
