Drew Kennedy

St Abilene

by Drew Kennedy
Drew Kennedy

Biography:

I write songs for a living, and have been doing so since 2004.

I have three favorite guitars, one being a 1964 Gibson Country and Western, which (with the help of a fine luthier) I was able to return to a playable condition after finding it in a state of total disrepair. I love the way it sounds, and I think it likes having me around as well. My second guitar is a 2002 Morgan Rosewood Dreadnaught that found me before I could find it. I ended up writing and recording most of 2011’s Fresh Water In The Salton Sea with her.

[Verse 1]
D A
Thumbing through some magazines
Bm
Colored panoramic scenes of destinations
G A D
Underneath the Greyhound station sign
A
The world is changing all the time
Bm
Nothing ever changed inside of my apartment
G A
'Cept for faded walls and weathered carpet

[Chorus 1]
Bm G
And I’ll be thirty-one with the rising of the sun
Bm A
Thirty years is long enough to dream
D A
St Abilene watch over me
Bm G
Keep me safe, make me strong, help me see
D A Bm G
May you keep me company when company I need
D A D
Watch over me St. Abilene

[Verse 2]
D A
I’ve seen them come and I’ve seen them go
Bm
And all I’ve ever had to show for my existence
G A D
Are the fair-thee-wells and I’ll be missing you’s
A
But I don’t think they really do
Bm
Fading out into the blue and white horizon
G A
Must be nothing short of mystifying

[Chorus 2]
Bm G
I’ll be thirty-one with the rising of the sun
Bm A
Riding on the western bound machine
D A
St. Abilene, watch over me
Bm G
Keep me safe, make me strong, help me see
D A Bm G
May you keep me company when company I need
D A D
St. Abilene. Watch over me, St. Abilene
