Lyrics
The sun-bleached Chilton manual for a '92 Dodge.
Its pages smell like piñon smoke and the floor of your old garage.
A coffee ring stain on the chapter 'bout the timing chain,
From that long October Tuesday we spent working in the rain.
[Chorus]
And this ain't a memory, it's a catechism creed.
Every rust-stain is a scripture that I can't help but read.
This is my tabernacle, this dust is holy ground.

It's the only kind of church I've ever found.
[Bridge]
Does the California concrete feel like honest workin' stone?
Did you find that higher gear you were lookin' for all alone?
[Outro]
Just your faded ball cap, hangin' on a nail.
A threadbare testament that I can't help but hail.
