THE BOOTLEG SAINT – The Sam Roberts Band
Submitted by Rocco C.
Intro strum between C – F5, then F5-G5
C - F5 Come make your complaint to the Bootleg Saint
He's been gone, keepin' on, keepin' on for your freedom
F5-G5 Black boots, brown skin he has chemical roots
He's taking back the city one sinner at a time
F#min C F#min C He'll sacrifice if you pay the price F He remembers a time when everything was alright
We had water from wine, the streets were alive
F5-G5 Then old Captain Industry who sold his soul at Wounded Knee
Bought himself a little property
The Saint had found his enemy
F#min C F#min C C-F5 He'll sacrifice if you pay the price F C The laws might sleep, but they never die G C – F5 Lions for sheep - an eye for an eye G C-F5 He wears a ring with the brand of a three-legged dog G C-F5 His rose-coloured glasses cut through the fog F C The laws might sleep but they never die G C – F5 Lions for sheep, an eye for an eye C – F5 He came down on a storm cloud hard as the Amazon rain
Took him on, took him on and on
And you can pay your respects in the form of a cheque
He's taking back the city one sinner at a time
F#min C F#min C He'll sacrifice if you pay the price F C The laws might sleep but they never die G C – F5 Lions for sheep, an eye for an eye F C The Bootleg Saint, well he walks the line F C – F5 Between an everyman hero and a waste of time
