Old St. John Chords by Goodnight, Texas

[Gm] I heard that old Saint John _ left his life behind him [Dm] and abandoned _ [C] his children in [Gm] dust. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ He settled in Santa Fe _ and told the ones he met there [Dm] that he [C] was the hand of [Gm] God.
_ They _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] built him [C] to a saint, [B] but he's nothing _ [Gm] but a man who [C] burned every _ [Cm] bridge that he [Gm] came upon. _ _ _ _
_ I'm told that old Saint John _ _ claimed to heal the ailing [Dm] and the poor [C] would cherish [Gm] his name.
_ _ _ _ But I knew that ill-willed man has failed to lend obsessed _ with [Dm] women _ [C] and liquor and [Gm] fame. _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] They built him to [C] a saint, but [Cm] he's nothing [Gm] but a man _ who burned every [Eb] _ [Cm] bridge that [Gm] he came _ upon. _ _ _

Haven't you ever [Gm] been lied to by saints with a soulful sound? _
Haven't you ever been lied to with words that [G] be long underground?
[Gm] _ You try and try to believe in someone that you never should trust.
But the prayers and the money you're sending are adding thick layers of rust.

Haven't you [Bb] ever been [Gm] lied to? _

_ I heard that old Saint John _ _ [D] never felt _ [Gm]
remorseful [Dm] and believers _ [C] never knew his past.
[G] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
But I'm certain that if he's gone, he did not go to heaven and his scripture and its lies won't last. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] They built him to [C] a saint, [G] but he's nothing but [Gm] a man _ [C] who burned every [Cm] _ bridge that [G] he came upon. _ _ _ _
