Dm              A#
This is the story of a man,
               F
Who conquered life drink in hand
      A         Dm
Ship unmanned.
               A#
Marked by genius, channelled good,
            F
By some a bit misunderstood.
      A
They'd been wrong many times before

A#
Some times our saints are sinners,
                  F
They blur the lines and lead the way,
Their Way.
A#
Raise hell and a glass in reverence,
                  F
The fearless lives of our great saints - our saints.

Dm             A#
Never a stranger to late night
                 F
snake bite fist fights and empty pints,
     A
Unrivaled heights.
Dm               A#
He led with songs, they sang along,
              F
created bonds that held so strong
      A
Some were right and some were wrong

Solo

Bridge:

D5     A#5        F5
It's by the sea and at nights end
        C5        D5
that's when the sin and swill begin
        A#5       F5
That's when he had that certain light
      C5       D5
inside his head
      A#5       F5
For every whisper he would scream
      C5         D5
for every drought he shared a drink
     A#5        F5         C5
For every sorrow there is a light from our St. James

Part Clean:

A#
On the sea by the cliff he watches,

he waits the night to see
  F
The day - his way
A#
Last call will find us all
                  F
But there's a light that leads the way, our way.
