Tear Stained Eye
(Jay Farrar)
Capo, second fret
Intro:
D Dadd11 D
Verse 1:
Walking down [D] Main Street, getting to [G]know the concrete
Looking for a [A]purpose from the neon [D]sign
I would meet you anywhere the western [G]sun meets the air
Well hit the [A]road never looking [D]behind
CHORUS
Can you deny theres nothing [Em]greater
Nothing [G]more than the traveling hands of [D]time
St. Genevieve can hold back the [Em]wather
But saints dont [G]bother with a tear-stained [D]eye
(insert your favorite banjo solo)
(same chords as first half of chorus)
Verse 2:
Seeing traces of the scars that came before
Hitting the pavement, still asking for more
When the hours go and move along, worn out wood and familiar songs
To hear your voice is not enough, its more than a shame.
(insert favorite pedal steel solo)
(same chords as chorus)
Verse 3:
Like the man said, rode hard and put away wet,
Throw out the bad news, and put it to rest.
If learning is living, and the truth is a state of mind
Youll find its better at the end of the line
