Music With Our Legends Gone - Chad Carlson

Capo 1

A                                  D
I was getting pretty low the other day
A                             E
Feeling beat up, bruised and in the way
A                                 D
Thought I'd turn on the radio to calm my fears
A                      E            A
But all I heard just brought me to tears

Chorus
 D                        A            A7
It's just music with our legends gone
 D                                     E                       
It's just notes on a record that goes on too long
 A                           A7             D           
They still sing about love, heartbreak and pain
 A             E                       A                   
All I got to say is it just ain't the same


They used to live the music as their lives

They went to prison and they lost their wives

When they sang about hurt you knew it was real

They'd lay it all on the line just to tell you how they feel

Repeat Chorus

The music today it ain't got no soul

A tree with no roots just won't grow

They took our heroes and put them on the shelf

When I listen to the radio I just can't hear myself


Repeat Chorus
