[Verse 1]
When [D]I was just s[A]ix years old
[Bm]They told [Am]me that one day[G]
They'd take the saint[A]s away
[D]Had I known then what
[A]I know n[Bm]ow
[Am]I would never say
[G]I'd go with the sai[A]nts someday
[Dm]Oh, [F]I woul[G]d love to say
May[Dm]be I'[F]ll f[G]ly to someday
[Dm]When [F]they take the saints a[G]way,
take the [A]saints [D]away[A]
If [D]they'd ask [A]me honestly,
[Bm]woul[Am]d you give your love[G] away
I'd answer [A]carefully
[D]Then I'd turn my [A]face into the wind
[Bm]And sigh with [Am]my eyes fi[G]rm
Only if they'd [A]leave me this way
[Dm]Oh, [F]I knew bet[G]ter then
My [Dm]heart [F]was weaker than [G]it's ever been
[Em]I kn[Dm]ow it [F]wouldn't
leave [G]me this way
When they took [Asus4]the saints awa[A]y[D][A]
[Dm]Oh, [C]I wo[F]uld love[G] to see
[Dm]Maybe, [F]maybe I could
[G]fly for some day
Oh, [Dm]well, [F]they take a sai[G]nt's way,
take a [A]saint's [D]way
[A]See, just sen[D]d me down some light
Send me down some light
Send me down some light
Send me down some [G]light[Dm]
[C]I w[F]oul[G]d love to say, baby[Dm],
