The Poet

The best Song of Ryan Bingham

The Poet


E6
As I get long gone
Out where the wind blows
					      E
The desert sky she flys by for miles
E6
As I keep walkin’ people keep talkin’
						           E
About things they’ve never scene or done,
E6
Homeless sleep in the park
Sweet hearts kiss in the dark
					       E
I myself just move on through town
E6
The moon keeps on shinin’
The rich keep on dinin’
				               E
Oh how i love the highway sun
F#m			    A			         E
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood

E6
Coyotes are callin’
Stars keep on fallin’
				             E
Your mother she won’t be around
E6
A feather blows down the road
The wind is cold and your wings are broke
					         E
And your heart is livin’ on the run
E6
Lonely and wasted, her eyes replaced it
					          E
I don’t think I’ll make another mile
E6
From town to town I run
My horse ain’t to drunk
					    E
The daylight is singin to the sun
F#m			    A					 E
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood

E6
Juke box is barkin’
I’m just getting started
					E
I’ve yet to see the light of day
E6
Senoritias lose it to the mariachi music
				           E
Cause new york is too far away
E6
The band keeps on playin’
With beer bottles breakin’
					        E
The barmaid I heard pulled a gun
E6
Poet takes a pistol, points at this sister
				       E
Says honey your day is done
F#m			   A			 E
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood
F#m			   A					E
Out to the back, the poet writes his songs in blood
