running down to the dead man saloon
drinks are wild in the afternoon let her
cool down so you can sleep tonight
holding dear to the lifeless champagne she
has left you with no sustain
you are slowing down so you can be free again
tripping out by yourself on the great plains
go and catch all the falling airplanes
gonna tear that stadium down
to the ground forever asleep my soul will keep
no one hears from the star crossed dry room
gotta run can wait i'll die soon
gonna turn my amplifier on
like a bell calms me down the guitar sound
running down to the dead man saloon
drinks are wild in the afternoon
let her cool down so you can sleep tonight holding dear to the lifeless champagne
she has left you with no sustain you are slowing down so you can be free again
i am afraid of the things you do to me
gonna stand on a hill of sapphire
son clara who writes in black fire
gonna turn that orchestra on like a bell
calms me down
the cello sound running down to the dead man saloon
drinks are wild in the afternoon
let her cool down so you can sleep tonight
she has left you with no sustain
you are slowing down so you can be
free again
