Heroes

All of my heroes keep dying

Lord, may they rest in peace

So here's to the songs that will always live on

From now until eternity

As a kid I would sing to Islands in the stream

And all that I wanted was to dance with somebody

Had a grunge flannel phase in my teen spirit days

Georgia plates on my truck, but playing california love, oh

All of my heroes are dying

Lord, may they rest in peace

So here's to the songs that will always live on

From now until eternity

Oh, the first chords daddy showed me

Was to Okie from Muskogee

Then I started a band, knew I was born a ramblin' man

Took an American girl, and I made her my wife

I guess even the losers get lucky sometimes, oh

All of my heroes are dying

Lord, may they rest in peace

Oh, so here's to the songs that will always live on

From now until eternity

I bet the bar stools in heaven are all filled up with legends

But they don't drink alone and tears dry on their own

When it's my time to go

All that I hope is old country road take me home

It seems like the lessons from the ones up above

Is it we are all going to make it

Well, all you need is love

So let's take all the songs that they've left behind

And tonight we're going to party like it's 1999, oh

All of my heroes keep dying (My heroes)

Lord, may they rest in peace (Lord, may they rest in peace)

So here's to the songs that will always live on

From now until eternity

Here's to the songs that will always live on

From now until eternity
