Western Pier Lyrics & Tabs by Craig Finn
Western Pier
guitar chords lyrics
Someone saw something just east of here
I came up the western pier
There's one thing you should know about
Christ is watching me right now
Someone saw something and they shot it down
I spent seven months in another town
One night I'd walked down on the beach
One night I saw them watching me
They rolled up
They put the cuffs on
And they drove me
Deep into the valley
The just judge
He looked me over
He said "I'm sorry
The just judge
He looked me over
He said "I'm sorry
You don't have to keep running
But you'd best be leaving"
You can't take away all the parts of you
That make you do the things you do
The girls that live inside my heart
Keep coming up the boulevard
They roll up
They pledge their loving
Then they drive you
Halfway to a breakdown
The just judge
He looked me over
He said "I'm sorry
Love's been such a letdown
Let's proceed with the shakedown"
Jesus is a judge
And he's kind
And he's just
Forgives us for our avarice and lust
I don't even know what's east of here
I came up the western pier
