BLAZE OF GLORY by Bon Jovi
INTRO 12 BARS
VERSE
I wake up in the mornin’
And I raise my weary head
I got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night’s bed
I don’t know where I’m goin’
Only God knows where I’ve been
I’m a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind, yeah
INTERLUDE 4 BARS
VERSE
You’re brought into this world
But they say you’re born in sin
Well at least they’ve given me something
I didn’t have to steal or have to win
Well, they tell me that I’m wanted
Yeah I’m a wanted man
I’m a colt in your stable
I’m what Cain was to Able
Mister catch me if you can
CHORUS
I’m goin’ down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I’m goin’ out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood
I’m no one’s son
Call me young gun
INTERLUDE 2 BARS
VERSE
You ask about my conscience
And I offer you my soul
You ask if I’ll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I’ll grow old
You ask me if I known love
And what it’s like to sing songs in the rain?
Well, I’ve seen love come
I’ve seen it shot down
I’ve seen it die in vain
CHORUS
Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
But I’m going down in a blaze of glory
Lord, I never drew first but I drew first blood
I’m a devil’s son
Call me young gun
INTERLUDE 4 BARS
SOLO 8 BARS
INTERLUDE 4 BARS
VERSE
Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No, I ain’t lookin’ for forgiveness
But before I’m six foot deep
Lord, I got to ask a favor
And I’ll hope you’ll understand
‘Cause I’ve lived life to the fullest
Let this boy die like a man
Starin’ down the bullet
Let me make my final stand
(drum break)
CHORUS
Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
But I’m going down in a blaze of glory
Lord, I never drew first but I drew first blood
I’m a devil’s son
Call me young gun
OUTRO
I’m the young gun
Young gun, yea eee yea
Young gun
