[Verse 1]
Am G
I stood in disbelief wonderin' when the madness is gonna be done
D Am
The gravest tears had come up on me in consequence, Route 91
Am G
Then I was in a studio, once again, I broke down and cried
D Am
A voice come on my headphones, told me Tom Petty died
[Chorus]
G
And all the rock gods are dead or dying
D
Seems the whole world is broken and crying
Em
It is more than prayers we're needing
C
all on a cross, alone and bleeding
G D C
And hey, engineer, don't play it back
G D C
This train we're on's Coming off the tracks
[Verse 2]
Am G
Ain't nobody left to sing the blues the way they supposed to be sung
D Am
Everybody's talkin', nobody's listenin', it's like we're just speakin' in
tongues
Am G
There's a beauty that we witness when standin' in a sacred place
D Am
Yet lookin' at the disarray down here, you'd think maybe God's run out of
grace
[Chorus]
G
And all the rock gods are dead or dying
D
Seems the whole world is broken and crying
Em
It’s more than prayers we're needing
C
We're all on a cross, alone and bleeding
G D C
And hey, engineer, don't play it back
G D C
This train we're on's comin' off the tracks
[Verse 3]
Am G
We were as beautiful as angels, one was born with virtue and trust
D Am
Then our innocence was lost, burned off or turned to rust
Am G
But we're betrayed by black when shadows risin' in the darkness at dusk
D Am
Steering us away from the light, like broken toys in the dust
