"Tear Stained Eye"

A                                                       D
Walkin down Main Street, gettin' to know the concrete
                     E                             A
Lookin for a purpose from a neon sign.
A                                                          D
I would meet you anywhere western sun meets the air
                    E                              A
I'll hit the road, never lookin' behind.

chorus:
A   Bm
Can you deny, there's nothin' greater
D   A
nothin' more than travelin' hands of time
A        Bm
St. Genevieve can hold back the water,
E        A
but saints don't bother with a tear stained eye.


Seein' traces of the stars that came before
written in the pavement, still askin' for more
when the hours don't move along, worn-out wood and familiar songs
To hear your voice is not enough, is more than a shame.

(chorus)

Like a man said, rode hard and put away wet
throw away the bad news and put it to rest
If learnin is livin', and the truth is a state of mind
you'll find it's better at the end of the line.

(chorus)
