I know, I know they tried
But nothing but a song ever saved my life
I save the deep cuts for the darkest nights
I've got a trick, you can borrow
When you're sick and feeling sorrow
Always up my sleeve, a sad song to keep me company
It's about damn time, I could find a rhyme
All we need is three part harmony
To feel something
A real something
You with me?
Every conversation I've been in
No one tells the truth like John Lennon
I feel fine when I listen to my friend John Prine
If you want, if you're willing
I'll blow your mind, I'll play you Dylan
I guess we all wish we were Elvis
It's about damn time, I could find a rhyme
All we need is three part harmony
To feel something
A real something
You with me?
It's about damn time, I could find a rhyme
All we need is three part harmony
To feel something
A real something
You with me?
Eleven years old, I sold my soul
And everything I had for Rock & Roll
I did my best to do it justice
I tried church and therapy
None of that shit ever help me
As much as four chords and a minor key
It's about damn time, I could find a rhyme
All we need is three part harmony
To feel something
A real something
You with me?
God bless those who tried
But nothing but a song saved my life
I save the deep cuts for the darkest nights
