I was no daddy's dream,
was not your mama's prayer
But I was the first daddy,
last head out of there
I caught your wings in fire,
when I spoke my bronco tire
Out of that town
I'm good at rolling dice,
no good at standing still You like the thought
of chasing life instead of dying to build
We're living reckless,
nothing to catch us, maybe but your crown
Now this ain't for everybody,
toes hanging off a ledge Like we got nothing to lose
There ain't always heaven baby,
it's living on the edge
You hold me, hold you,
it's a hell of a view
I paint with my old Gibson,
you paint your purple sky
This town's a canvas baby,
less pain in the red than dye
We're wild shooting stars,
chasing what's in our hearts Into the blues
This ain't for everybody,
toes hanging off a ledge Like we got nothing to lose
There ain't always heaven baby,
it's living on the edge
You hold me, hold you,
it's a hell of a view
Now
we ain't for everybody,
toes hanging off a ledge
Like we got nothing, we got nothing to lose
There ain't always heaven baby,
it's living on the edge
You hold me, hold you,
it's a hell of a view
Hell of a view
Hell of a view in Nashville,
Tennessee tonight Nashville,
Tennessee tonight
