Tear Stained Eye by Son Volt, from Trace CD
from juddy@aol.com
capo 3rd fret
chords are same in verses and chorus
D G
Walkin down Main Street, gettin` to know the concrete
A D
Lookin for a purpose from a neon sign.
D G
I would meet you anywhere western sun meets the air
A D
I`ll hit the road, never lookin` behind.
chorus:
Can you deny, there`s nothin` greater
nothin` more than travelin` hands of time
St. Genevieve can hold back the water,
but saints don`t bother with a tear stained eye.
(banjo solo)
Seein` traces of the scars that came before
written in the pavement, still akin` for more
when the hours don`t move along, worn-out wood and familiar songs
To hear your voice is not enough, is more than a shame.
(chorus)
(solo)
Like a man said, rode hard and put away wet
throw away the bad news and put it to rest
If learnin is livin`, and the truth is a state of mind
you`ll find it`s better at the end of the line.
(chorus)
