1a canzone al giorno

L'altra sera ho visto uno speciale sul campionato di calcio appena finito su Sky con diverse canzoni che gli facevano da colonna sonora. Molte le avevo già postate ma una no e da oggi non lo dico più. E' un brano dei Bon Jovi del 1990 dal titolo "Blaze of glory" che ha dato anche il titolo all'album che lo contiene ed è stato colonna sonora del film "Young Guns II" con, tra i tanti,  Emilio Estevez, Kiefer Sutherlund e William Petersen. Anche domani forse niente novità. Tanto mi sono sfogato nelle scorse settimane. Buon ascolto e buon giovedì.

Blaze of glory (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 
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 
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 
And 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 
Lord I never drew first 
But I drew first blood 
I'm the devil's son 
Call me young gun 

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 got to ask a favor 
And 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
