The National
Tall Saint (Demo)
[Verse 1]
Keep your legs from shaking, fill your eyes with new tears
Don't ask questions, you don't know your name
Something for everyone, try to win prizes
Stay young and quiet

[Chorus 1]
Tall saint, I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I'm in your hands tonight, tall saint
Stay behind me

[Verse 2]
Don't tell everybody at the table about your dreams
They're too amazing, it'll melt their minds
Take 'em to Hollywood, cut out the good parts
Become millionaires

[Chorus 2]
Tall saint, I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I've been looking for you all night, tall saint
Stay behind me now, tall saint

[Bridge]
In my city, I didn't make a sound
When I fell over and cracked my crown
Heard a woman say, "Stay down, Champion
Stay down"
[Chorus]
Tall Saint, I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I'm in your hands tonight, tall saint
Stay behind me now, tall saint
Stay behind me now, tall saint

[Bridge]
In my city, I didn't make a sound
When I fell over and cracked my crown
Heard a woman say, "Stay down, Champion
Stay down"

[Outro]
But I got up, got in a car
Said "I don't think I'm gonna go very far"
Just take me one time around the ballroom slow
And take me home
