BOOTLEG SAINT……………..SAM ROBERTS tab by AVH
A
Come make your complaint to the Bootleg Saint
He's been gone, keepin' on, keepin' on for your freedom
Black boots, brown skin he has chemical roots
He's taking back the city one sinner at a time
Emin G Emin G A
He'll sacrifice if you pay the price
A
He remembers a time when everything was alright
We had water from wine, the streets were alive
Then old Captain Industry who sold his soul at Wounded Knee
Bought himself a little property
The Saint had found his enemy
Emin G Emin G A
He'll sacrifice if you pay the price

The laws might sleep, but they never die

Lions for sheep - an eye for an eye

He wears a ring with the brand of a three-legged dog
D A
His rose-coloured glasses cut through the fog
C G
The laws might sleep but they never die
D A
Lions for sheep, an eye for an eye
A
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
Emin G Emin G A
He'll sacrifice if you pay the price

Lions for sheep, an eye for an eye

The Bootleg Saint, well he walks the line
D A
Between an everyman hero and a waste of time
