passing by the graveyard song for john b
The boy was genius When he played the guitar He lost control of it And took it too far Until one rainy night He never came home She waited in the front yard Standing all alone, all alone Standing all alone He was a fool He overplayed his role He couldn't stop He had to go man go He loved his whiskey And he loved his cocaine But he really loved that girl And he'll never see her again Passing by the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) It's lonely and it's so hard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) She never really goes far (Whoa, whoa, whoa) She's standing at the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) She knew the cop She knew the doctor, too They tried to save him There was nothing they could do Don't waste your life away Like my long-lost friend What happened to him Can always happen again, yes it can (Whoa, whoa, whoa) You never have to go far (Whoa, whoa, whoa) It's lonely and it's so hard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) When you're thinking 'bout the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) When the cold wind blows And it sweeps across her shoulder, yeah, yeah Now the whole world knows She'll never let him go She just can't let him go Buried him deep In a piano box Made sure he was lying With the lid facing up It's cold and lonely And the wind sings his song Remember him When you're passing along Passing by the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) It's lonely and it's so hard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Never have to go far (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Thinking 'bout the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Passing by the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) It's lonely and it's so hard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Never have to go far (Whoa, whoa, whoa) When you're passing by the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Sing it one more time (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Sing it one more (Whoa, whoa, whoa) By the graveyard (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
