Saint Conformity Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]
[F]he's got a m[Am]ean str[E]eak
that's 2 miles [Am]wide[F]
a wicked widow's peak [C]that his
[G]lost [F]hat won't hide
[Am]has some family round here well
[D]aware of his leathery pride
lives down by [F]the racetrack
so he knows the inside
[C]he's not a bad joe,

[Verse 2]
[E]
just talk to the [Am]girl that used [F]to know
she was a waitress [C]for a while,
[E]'til the club[Am]house changed her style
[F]she went from small tow[C]n looker
to [Em]dressing like a [Am]myopic
optimistic [F]hooker
well adorned [C]with accessory
[E]like the back hand of benny
the booker
oh conformity, saint conformity won't you come down here

[Verse 3]
[Am]and
clutter up her form for me
if l live my life in routine would
you make the meantime
a little less mean

[Verse 4]
it's a [D]watermark,
this thing you settled for
corrosive material,
this thing you [Am]settled for
it's an endless ache, a [D]heart attack
and an earthquake
[F]all of this and more, or less, this thing
you settled for
his [C]tongue has the bite, 'til

[Verse 5]
[E]
he pickles it [Am]just right
[F]his brain took the[C] train,
which left [E]his heart out [Am]in the rain
[F]his manner is [C]neglect,
[E]any of your help is onl[Am]y suspect
[F]his memory is stu[C]ck in slo- mo rew[E]ind of how her eyes u[Am]sed to shine[D]
