Western Tears (Live)

There's a man in the corner of a smokey bar
He lights up a cigarette in the dark
Lookin' in his glass like it's a way to his past
Pulls down the brim of his black felt cowboy hat

I had to ask him where he had been
And he told me the same place you're gonna take your sins
And with a spark in his eye I think he started to cry, hmm, hmm
And I ain't never seen that look, in a grown man's eye

Western tears, you try to hide 'em from your face
But they come with the years
When you roamin' from place to place
And you're caught beneath the rubble
When you shoot too many doubles
And you tryin' to lose the trouble of your fears
All you're left with is sittin' here cryin' western tears

It reminded me of a girl chasin' down a world gettin' so close to her dream
But a couple wrong turns led to a crash and a burn, and she tried not to feel a thing
Tucson, Arizona weighed on her shoulders, she wondered why it all was so damn mean
But soon, soon she'd see, what fate would bring

Western tears, you try to hide 'em from your face
But they come with the years
When you roam in from place to place
And you're caught beneath the rubble
When you shoot too many doubles
And you try to lose the trouble of your fears
All you're left with is sitting here, yeah, you're cryin' western, western tears

Yeah, you're cryin' western, western tears
Ohh
