Song: St. Abilene Tab
St. Abilene
By Drew Kennedy
6/19/2010
Capo 2
D A
Thumbing through some magazines
Bm
Colored panoramic scenes of destinations
G A D
Underneath the Greyhound station sign
A
The world is changing all the time
Bm
Nothing ever changed inside of my apartment
G A
'Cept for faded walls and weathered carpet
Chorus:
Bm G
And I’ll be thirty-one with the rising of the sun
Bm A
Thirty years is long enough to dream
D A
St Abilene watch over me
Bm G
Keep me safe, make me strong, help me see
D A Bm G
May you keep me company when company I need
D A D
Watch over me St. Abilene
I’ve seen them come and I’ve seen them go
And all I’ve ever had to show for my existence
Are the fair-thee-wells and I’ll be missing you’s
But I don’t think they really do
Fading out into the blue and white horizon
Must be nothing short of mystifying
Chorus
Chorus 2:
I’ll be thirty-one with the rising of the sun
Riding on the western bound machine
St. Abilene, watch over me
Keep me safe, make me strong, help me see
May you keep me company when company I need
St. Abilene. Watch over me, St. Abilene
