The Song is Still Slipping Away Lyrics

Intro: C
With a bag, a bottle and this old guitar
In the back of some bus, on the road
I'm living the high life, with nothing to show
But a love that's letting me go
Your heroes turn out to be a**holes
The light that you're chasing in the tunnel is a train
Singer's in key, the guitar's in tune
But the song is still slipping away
Oh, the lights of the city paint a stage in the night
For two hearts breaking in time
Wild horses are cursed, but then freedom and mind
And the hunger left burning inside
Your heroes turn out to be a**holes
The light in the tunnel that you're chasing is a train
Singer's in key, the guitar's in tune
But the song is still slipping away
And slowly nothing else matters
As the white and the black become grey
