Dead Man Saloon

running down to the dead man saloon
 drinks are wild in the afternoon let her
cool down so you can sleep tonight
 holding dear to the lifeless champagne she
has left you with no sustain
 you are slowing down so you can be free again
tripping out by yourself on the great plains
 go and catch all the falling airplanes
 gonna tear that stadium down
 to the ground forever asleep my soul will keep
 no one hears from the star crossed dry room
 gotta run can wait i'll die soon
 gonna turn my amplifier on
 like a bell calms me down the guitar sound
 running down to the dead man saloon
 drinks are wild in the afternoon
let her cool down so you can sleep tonight holding dear to the lifeless champagne
 she has left you with no sustain you are slowing down so you can be free again
 i am afraid of the things you do to me
 gonna stand on a hill of sapphire
 son clara who writes in black fire
 gonna turn that orchestra on like a bell
 calms me down
 the cello sound running down to the dead man saloon 
drinks are wild in the afternoon
 let her cool down so you can sleep tonight
 she has left you with no sustain
 you are slowing down so you can be
free again
