Song For The Saints Chords & Lyrics - Kenny Chesney

[INTRO]
[C]

[VERSE 1]
[C]Long before boat anchored the harbour
[F]Long before steel drums filled the breeze
[G]God lifted these islands from the ocean
[C]They stood strong for centuries

[PRE-CHORUS]
So it's fi[Am]tting they were named after men with golden halos
'[F]Cause angels don't give it just cause a little wind blows [C]

[CHORUS]
[C]We say we can when th[Am]ey say we can't
[F]See what it is when they s[G]ee what it ain't
With b[C]lood, sweat and tears and a n[Am]ew coat of paint
We're just a si[F]nners choir singing a s[G]ong for the saints[C]
[C]Woa[Am]h, [F]woah[G]
[C]Woa[Am]h, [F]woah[G]

[VERSE 2]
Fo[C]r the farmer, the field, the sugar cane
For the d[F]runkered in his hammock
[F]Drying out after the rain
For the tea[G]cher in the classroom
K[G]id kicking cans in the street
With a c[F]aptain and his bar mate
Praying [G]down on bended knees

[CHORUS]
[C]We say we can when t[Am]hey say we can't
[F]See what it is when they s[G]ee what it ain't
With b[C]lood, sweat and tears and a n[Am]ew coat of paint
We're just a si[F]nners choir singing a s[G]ong for the saints
[C]Woa[Am]h, [F]woa[G]h
[C]Woa[Am]h, [F]woa[G]h

[BRIDGE]
This [Am]brokenness will heal
This w[Am/G]eakness will be strong
Let's l[F]ift our voice together

As the saints go marching on

[CHORUS]
[C]We say we can when t[Am]hey say we can't
[F]See what it is when they [G]see what it ain't
With bl[C]ood, sweat and tears and a [Am]new coat of paint
We're just a si[F]nners choir singing a s[G]ong for the

[C]We say we can when t[Am]hey say we can't
[F]See what it is when they [G]see what it ain't
With bl[C]ood, sweat and tears and a [Am]new coat of paint
We're just a si[F]nners choir singing a s[G]ong for the saints
[C]Woa[Am]h, [F]woa[G]h
[C]Woa[Am]h, [F]woa[G]h

[C]Woa[Am]h, [F]woa[G]h
