WHEN WE’RE GONE Music & Lyrics by Monty Powell ©2017 Cloudmont Music (SESAC) [administered by Selma Avenue Music (SESAC)] We carried our own amps and drums We set up our own sound We played Sweet home Alabama More times than we can count And we’ll play it again next weekend If it shouted form the crowd Until you write a better one son Don’t be so damn proud So damn proud Ooooohhhh, Ooooohhhh Peavy rigs and 8 th grade gigs Endless dreams of gold Les Pauls God bless Pete’s Music City You be Dwayne, I’ll be Dickey Just bendin’ them Ernie Balls Raise your hand if you ever had anything You ever wanted so bad Keep it up if you ever sold a guitar That you still wish you had We did it for the love And for a dollar here and there For those who came to see us And the drunks who didn’t care We did it for each other Sisters and brothers on that stage It’s like we didn’t have a choice We were born to play, born to play And it made us all believers In the power of a song They were singin’ when we got here They’ll be singin’ when we;’re gone We did it for the love And we ain’t ever gonna quit We’ll look ten thousand in the eye To find the one who gives a shit We did it for each other Sisters and brothers on that stage It’s like we didn’t have a choice We were born to play, born to play And it made us all believers In the power of a song They were singin’ when we got here They’ll be singin’ when we;’re gone Ooooohhhh, Ooooohhhh And when the songbird cries no more And my soul flies I’m gonna knock three times on heaven’s door And look St. Peter in the eye 9and say) Wedid it for the love Cause your boss made us this way And if there’s and angels jammin’ Sir, we sure would like to play Find some long lost brothers Play some old blues licks in “E” Talk about the glory days Of the 1970s That made us all believers In the power of a song They were singin’ when we got here They’ll be singin’ when we’re gone Ooooohhhh, Ooooohhhh Up on that stage they’ll be singin’…still singin’ Up in heaven we’ll be singin’ Singin’ a new song A new song Singin’ a new song Singin’ a new song Singin’ a new song
