Artist/Band: Briar Branch Road Tabs
Song: Far From Saints Tab
Far From Saints
Briar Branch Road
Intro: Bm G x 3
Bm
Outside there's a pickup truck
G
Got the bed cut off for a post rack
Bm
And flat bed four-wheel drives
G
Line the gravel in the back
Bm A
Inside there are dusty men
G
Holding beer in calloused hands
Bm G
And an ole blue heeler resting on the floor
Bm G x1
Bm
There ain't been no killings
G
Down at Shorty's bar
Bm
Since Tommy took a hammer to
G
That boy from Arkansas
Bm A
But sometimes on a rowdy night
G
There might be a short-lived fight
Bm
Over who makes a better diesel
G
Ford or Dodge
chorus:
Bm G
These ole boys are far from saints
D
They're sometimes wrong
A
But hell who ain't
Bm G
They just came to relax and drink
D A
So who am I to judge
Bm G
They'll go home to angry wives
D G
Stacks of bills and babies crying
Bm A G
But right now they're just men without a care
Oh yeah.
Bm G x1
Bm G
Jerry's tried for years to get on at the paper mill
Bm
But since he threw his back out
G
You know he probably never will
Bm A
And tomorrow he's gotta go to court
G
He's months behind on child support
Bm G
And that ole judge might give him thirty days
Bm
Billy poached another deer
G
But last night he was seen
Bm G
Someone called it in when they saw his spotlight beam
Bm A
He kicked up a cloud of dust
G
And just before he made his run
Bm G
He shot at the game warden again
chorus
Bm
There's a worn out figure
G
Sitting on a nearby stool
Bm
Needs to save tuition
G
To put his boy through welding school
Bm A
But he just bought another round
G
He's drinking half his paycheck down
Bm G
And someone said they just cut off his phone
Solo Break Chords: Bm G D A x2
Bm G D G
Bm A G
Bm G
These ole boys are far from saints
D A
But we've all made our own mistakes
Bm G
And I bet they'd buy you a drink
D A
If you were down and out
Bm G
They don't live the easy life
D G
They just come here to unwind
Bm A G
Sometimes it's all that gets them through the week
Outro: Bm G x 2 then end on Bm
My favorite BBR song, let me know what you think. You can also capo it on 2 and play these chords Am F C G
