Blaze of Glory by Bon Jovi

I love this song but I think that's because I loved these movies. This definitely won't be the only Bon Jovi song you'll hear here. Even though this was released in 1990, it's getting put in the 80's genre because that's what I though it was.

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, yeah 

When you're brought into this world 

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 through your stable 

I'm what Cain was to Abel 

Mister catch me if you can 

I'm going down (down) in a blaze of glory 

Take me now but know the truth 

I'm going out (out) in a blaze of glory 

And Lord, I never drew first but I drew first blood 

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 (down) in a blaze of glory 

Take me now but know the truth 

'Cause I'm going down (down) in a blaze of glory 

Lord, I never drew first but I drew first blood 

I'm the devil's son, call me young gun, na... yeah 

[Guitar solo]

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 gotta ask a favor 

And I hope you'll understand 

'Cause I've lived life to the fullest 

Let this boy's die like a man 

Staring down a bullet 

Let me make my final stand 

Shot down (down) in a blaze of glory 

Take me now but know the truth 

I'm going out (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 

I'm a young gun, yeah 

Young gun, yeah..., Young gun
