lyrics

All my heroes died in classic cars
Yeah the 27 club, tears on their guitars
Got a couple of friends who didn’t make it that far
So I got a tattoo on my arm
Cut my teeth playing for a cover charge
Couldn’t even cover the tab at the bar, and I’d
Drive all night to sleep on some floor
Try and get my foot in the door

Now I’m lying in a hotel room, I think of you
I feel lonely
And that’s how it should be
So if you see me walking down the street just
Look right through me
Cause that’s all I deserve

On the other side, the grass is already green
And that best night, you drank from your memory
And that kiss goodbye, said that you’d never leave
It’s a sad song in the backseat of a limousine

Just say yes cause that’s what you do
When you song for your supper there’s someone better than you, that wants to
Try on your world and walk in your shoes but
They don’t know what you lose

So if you see me walking down the street
Look right through me
Cause that’s how she left me
Have another glass of champagne I should’ve saved for your birthday
But we’re doing alright

On the other side, the grass is already green
And that best night, you drank from your memory
And that kiss goodbye, said that you’d never leave
It’s a sad, sad song
Oh maybe we’re alchemists turning years into gold
Like ice cold coca-cola cleaning blood off the road
And the more that it hurts, the more you believe
In our sad songs, in the backseat of a limousine
