Heaven’s Got the Blues

[Verse 1]
I woke up in a dream last night
There was some bad things goin' on
I woke up in a nightmare dream
Everything was wrong
I took a pen, wrote down what I saw and then
I put it in a song

[Verse 2]
The evil that men do
Was turning the angels to stone
The evil that men do
Was turning the angels to stone
Gonna rain on me and you
Sunshine ain't comin' through
Heaven's got the blues

[Chorus 1]
The people started cryin'
Lord have mercy on me
The people started cryin'
Lord have mercy on me
Gonna rain on me and you
Sunshine ain't comin' through, yeah
Heaven's got the blues

(Instrumental Solo)

[Chorus 2]
I heard the devil laughin'
He just loves misery
I heard the devil laughin'
He just loves misery
The evil that men do
Makes this dream come true, yeah
Heaven's got the blues

[Verse 3]
I woke up screamin'
Glad it was only a dream
I ran outside and looked around
Everything was as it seems
But coming from some place
A voice with a soldier's face [?]
The evil that men do is worse than a curse of medusa's face, woah

[Outro]
Woke up in a dream last night
Woke up in a nightmare dream
Woke up in a dream last night
Woke up in a nightmare dream
Its gonna rain on me and you
Sunshine ain't comin' through, yeah
Heaven's got the blues
Heaven's got the blues
Gonna rain on me and you
Heaven's got the blues
Heaven's got the blues
Heaven's got the blues
Heaven's got the blues
Gonna rain on me and you
Heaven's got the blues
