Lyrics

[Intro]
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh
Dm Bb F A
Dm Bb F A

[Verse 1]
Dm                          Bb
  This is the story of a man
                                 F
Who conquered life, drink in hand
             A
Ship unmanned
Dm                                Bb
  Marked by genius, channeled good
                            F
By some, a bit misunderstood
                 A
They'd been wrong many times before

[Chorus]
Bb
  Sometimes our saints are sinners
They blur the lines and lead the way,
F
 their way
Bb
  Raise hell and a glass in reverence
The fearless lives of our great saints,
F
 our saints

[Bridge]
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh

[Verse 2]
Dm                               Bb
  Never a stranger to late nights
                                        F
Snake bite, fist fights, and empty pints
                  A
Unrivaled heights, ah
Dm                                  Bb
  He led with songs, they sang along
                                 F
Created bonds that held so strong
               A
Some were right and some were wrong

[Chorus]
Bb
  Sometimes our saints are sinners
They blur the lines and lead the way,
F
 their way
Bb
  Raise hell and a glass in reverence
The fearless lives of our great saints,
F
 our saints

[Bridge]
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh

[Interlude]
Dm               Bb                  F
  It's by the sea  and at night's end
                   C               Dm
That's when the sin and swill begin
                  Bb                  F               C
That's when he had  that certain light inside his head
Dm              Bb                  F
  For every whisper, he would scream
                  C                  Dm
For every draught, he'd share a drink
             Bb
For every sorrow,
               F                    C Bbsus2
there's a light from our Saint James
On the sea, by the cliffs, he watches
He waits the night to see the day,
F
 his way
Bbsus2
      Last call will find us all
                                   F
But there's a light that leads away
Our way

[Chorus]
Bb
  Sometimes our saints are sinners
They blur the lines and lead the way,
F
 their way
Bb
  Raise hell and a glass in reverence
The fearless lives of our great saints,
F
 our saints

[Outro]
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh
Dm       Bb       F        A
Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh Oh oh Oh
