Bon Jovi - Blaze of Glory Lyrics

Artist: Bon Jovi

Album: Blaze Of Glory

  • Songwriters: Jon Bon Jovi

I wake up in the morning and I raise my weary head
I've got an old coat for a pillow and the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going only God knows where I've been
I'm a Devil on the run a six gun lover a candle in the wind

When you're brought into this world well they say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave 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 Abel
Mister catch me if you can

I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
And Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood
And I'm no one's son, call me young gun

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've 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

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Well Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood
I'm the Devil's son, call me young gun, yeah

Each night I go to bed I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't looking for forgiveness but before I'm six foot deep
Lord, I got to ask a favor and I hope you'll understand
'Cause I've lived life to the fullest let this boy die like a man
Staring down a bullet let me make my final stand

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood
And I'm no one's son, call me young gun
I'm a young gun yeah, young gun yeah yeah yeah
Young gun

    I love this song, its so relaxed but cool but slightly rocky. It owns like most Bon Jovi songs
