Grace for Saints and Ramblers Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]But[C][D][C][D]
[C]it [D]all[C][D]
came down [C]to you and [D]I[C]
[Am]But [D]it all came down to you and I

[Verse 2]
[C]
There [D]were [C]banged [G]up
hands stealing first base
Un[C]derneath [G]the tables so
we never sang grace
Falling out of bed for the
[C]work[G]day week
There was kiss[C]ing in [G]the cracks
of the [C]flash flood [G]streets
There were but[C]ton [G]blossoms
and merry Johnny Rotten
[C]Chewed up and swal[G]lowed by
[C]the profit they were trying to follow
[G]Bit too green and we pai[C]d no tax[G] on
our quick romantic [C]cul de [G]sac

[Verse 3]
But it [D]all came down to you [C]and [D]I[Am]
But it [D]all came down to you and I

[Verse 4]
[C][D]
There were washed [G]out cars in
our bark-old clothes
clothes
They were rubbing on each other
rubbing ghost on ghost
There [C]were [G]jonesed-up punks
and Je[C]sus [G]freaks
Weaving in [C]and out [G]of trouble wrapping
round and round a leash
There were sleep[C]less [G]dreamers,
blues day preachers
The message and the messenger,
gum [C]beneath [G]the register
[C]The sweet [G]gum tree by
[C]the dug [G]dunk tank
We could nev[D]er give [G]enough
to [D]the bad-luck bank
bank
There were hope[G]less sinners,
[C]sweepstake winners
They danced with [G]the farmer's daughter,
[C]capered with the corporate law[G]yers

[Verse 5]
But [D]it all came down [C]to you [D]and I
[Am]But [D]it all came down
to you and [Am]I[D]
But it all came down to you and [Am]I
But [D]it all came down to you and I

[Verse 6]
[Am]
There [C]was laughing in [G]the night,
sug[C]ar in [G]the shade
There were back stab
handshakes [C]made on [G]faith
We were never out of time and we
nev[C]er enter[G]tained
Anybody said out of habit that the
wind was going to change
There were restless misfits,
[C]teeth[G]ing biscuits
Bod[C]ies full of [G]penny wishes,
[C]parties full of [G]pretty dishes
Side by side with the [C]birds an[G]d bees
And we never sang grace and
never ever took a knee
With the saints and ramblers,
[C]movie star handlers
[G]High abo[C]ve the[G] aviary,
underneath the cemetery
And we never wondered why,
'cause the sun was in our [C]eye[G]s
There [C]was seed for [G]the field,
there was [C]grease for [G]the wheel
We were drinking with the luminaries,
eating with the visionaries
[D]But it all

[Verse 7]
came down to you and [C]I[Am]
But [D]it all came down to you and [Am]I
But [D]it all came down to you and [Am]I
But [D]it all came down to you and I
[Am]But [D]it all came down to
you and [Am]I[Am]
But [D]it all came down to you and I

[Outro 1]
