Notes: Ryan Adams interview:  "I wrote that in about 15 minutes after coming in from being out drinking. I passed out in the middle of the day, woke up, sat at my desk and wrote down the words. Then I went back to sleep. The next day I woke up and found what I’d written. And I remembered how the melody went and everything. Sometimes it just happens that way."

Lyrics:

If angels are messengers from god,
Please send one down to me
If angels are messengers from god,
I wrote a letter he should read

Been living on faithless street all by myself
Work your whole life for someone else
Trying to find sanction, Christ above man
He never shed his peace on this land
So I started this damn country band

Been living on faithless street all by myself
Work your whole life for someone else
Trying to find sanction, Christ above man
He never shed his peace on this land
So I started this damn country band
Cause punk rock was too hard to sing.

Been living on faithless street all by myself
Work your whole life for someone else
Trying to find sanction, Christ above man
He never shed his peace on this land
So I started this damn country band
