🎸 Intro:

Am C G Am
Am C G Am



🎸 Verse :
Am                          C
Someone saw something just east of here
G                         Am
I came up the Western pier
Am                           C
There's one thing you should know about
G                              Am
Christ is watching me right now
Am                             C
Someone saw something and they shot it down
G                                   Am
I spent seven months in another town
Am                            C
At night I'd walk down on the beach
G                               Am
One night I saw them watching me
Fmaj7          C  Fmaj7           C
They rolled up. They put the cuffs on
          Fmaj7            C       G
Then they drove me deep into the valley
Fmaj7        C   Fmaj7                          C
The just judge looked me over and said I'm sorry
Fmaj7        C           G
You don't have to keep running
                Fmaj7
But you best be leaving

🎸 Verse :
Am                          C
You can't take away all the parts of you
G                                 Am
That make you do the things you do
Am                     C
The girls that live inside my heart
Am                          G
Keep coming up the boulevard
Fmaj7        C  Fmaj7                C
They roll up. They pledge their love
               Fmaj7           C       G
And then they drive you halfway to a breakdown
Fmaj7       C    Fmaj7           C              Fmaj7
The just judge looked me over and said I'm sorry
       C             G
Love's been such a letdown
         Fmaj7
Let's proceed with the shakedown

🎸 Outro:
Am (hold)
Jesus is a judge and He's kind and He's just
G                              Am
Forgives us for our avarice and lust
Am                       C
I don't even know what's east of here
G                        Am
I came up the Western pier
