Main Theme: Dm - A# - F - A Verse
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
Chorus
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.
Verse
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
Chorus
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.
Solo
Dm          A#                F
It's by the sea and at nights end 

                C                Dm
that's when the sin and swill begin

               A#               F 
That's when he had that certain light

           C               Dm
inside his head

            A#               F
For every whisper he would scream 

            C                   Dm
for every drought he shared a drink

          A#                F                   C
For every sorrow there is a light from our St. James
Clean Part
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.
Chorus
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.
