Sam Riggs and the Night People â Long Shot
[Intro]
[Verse]
The waves sound like cannons tonight
Aimin straight for your heart
I strike a fuse in the fading light
Just as the summer goes dark
[Instrumental]
Bm A G
[Verse]
And everybody s got a fall back plan
A place to be when the lights go down
Girl you ve always been my main event
A show stopper in this rip tide town
[Chorus]
I know if feels like a long shot baby
Two broken hearts in a leap of faith
A faint heart never won fair lady
And loosin you is more than I can take
And I won t sit on the shoreline
As love slips through our hands
And hearts break on the coast of California
They wash away like footprints in the sand
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
The bright colours of the boardwalk lights
Shine on your face
All of the noise from the carnival rides
Can t drown out the pain
But call me out on my hard luck baby
I need redemption tonight
Scatter your troubles like stars on the water
Let âem go with the tides
[Chorus]
I know if feels like a long shot baby
Two broken hearts in a leap of faith
A faint heart never won fair lady
And loosin you is more than I can take
And I won t sit on the shoreline
As love slips through our hands
And hearts break on the coast of California
They wash away like footprints in the sand
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
I know if feels like a long shot baby
Two broken hearts in a leap of faith
A faint heart never won fair lady
And loosin you is more than I can take
And I won t sit on the shoreline
As love slips through our hands
And hearts break on the coast of California
They wash away like footprints in the sand
