Dead Rock Stars and One Night Stands

I've had enough of grey days and had to get away so I took a trip
From Portlands Bay to Santa Fe
While tripping down the west coast I met up with some like-minded fools
And we spent the night on gin and wine so

Wake me in the morning, when I'll be the last one to leave
We'll share a final cigarette, though you won't remember my name
It's all the same

Bodega Bay is flying by but will the birds attack, don't know about that
As we're driving down to San Fran state
Dead Rock Stars and One Night Stands across the USA maybe today
Will finally find a little peace of mind and

I'm staring at a photograph of someone that I used to know
I'm hoping that she's happy now, not knowing why I had to go
It's all the same

Elliott is playing at the basement on the hill and staying in
And we won't be seeing him again
And Shannon did you know you'd blow you're life out with that hit
I miss you so, and the music that I'll never know.

So spare a thought for Jimi strumming his six strings up above
For Lennon and for Luther King who tried to spread some peace and some love
Wake me in the morning, when I'll be the last one to leave
We'll share a final cigarette, though you won't remember my name
It's all the same
