"St. Alex" - Glassjaw
This song is from the 2-5-03 New York, NY acoustic set they did. So
far this is the only performance of it. I heard that there's footage of
the show. Until I see the footage I am left to assume he's playing it
in the positions I've tabbed.
It sounds like Justin is improvising this song quite a bit. I've
narrowed it down to what he plays the most, though. This is what it
would look like if you took all of the clutter out and organized it.
A thing about the lyrics is that many of them are actually taken from the
b-side "The Number No Good Things Could Come Of".
**Intro** (starts after, "We're gonna wing everything 'cause we've never played acoustic
before. Thank you guys for coming."

Let me introject about this little peace we have
And all the months spent dragging through the mud
Dragging through the mud, the dragon's out
It helps me, it helps me
It helps me comment on virginity
You don't know the truth
I must be going nowhere soon
Let me introject about this little peace we have
And when I say I'm done, I'm done
And I guess that I, I'm not as right as I appear to be
It helps me comment on virginity
You don't know the truth
We will be going nowhere soon
You're the reason why
They're always doubting of us twice
You don't know the truth
We will be going nowhere soon
You're the reason why
They're always doubting of us twice
