Lyrics

[Spoken Word: Myles Kennedy & Todd Kerns] Yeah! Ladies and gentlemen, make some noise On the electric guitar, a good man, Mr. Frank Sidoris Another fantastic man, human being, on the vocals and the bass Make some noise for Mr. Todd "Dammit" Kerns Ladies and gentlemen, the amazing Brent Fitz on the drums The reason we're all here Ladies and gentlemen, I want you to give it up On the electric guitar, for the one and only, Slash Now you have to hold it Normally, there's a microphone stand and Myles can walk away, but now He's fucked He's gonna stand here and hold the microphone while I introduce him Should I embarrass the fuck out of 'im or what? I think he's embarrassed enough as it is This right here, holding the microphone Is the one and only Mr. Myles motherfuckin' Kennedy Real quick, I just wanted to say, the first gig That this band ever did, which was five years ago Was right here, so we've come full circle, two records later That just dawned on me So I'm glad you all could make it down [Guitar Solo / Instrumental Intro] [Intro] (Hey) (Hey) (Hey) [Verse 1] When you look, you see right through me Cut the rope, I fell to my knees Born and broken every single time Always keep me under finger That's the spot where you run to me Might see some type of pleasure in my mind [Chorus] Yeah, here comes the water It comes to wash away the sins of you and I This time, with me [Post-Chorus] (Hey) (Hey) (Hey) [Verse 2] When you seek me, you'll destroy me Rape my mind and smell the poppies Born and bloodied every single time Always keep me under finger That's the spot where you might linger Might see some type of pleasure in my mind [Chorus] Yeah, here comes the water It comes to wash away the sins of you and I This time, you'll see Like holy water It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry This time, with me [Spoken Word] I wanna hear you scream! [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] When you look, you see right through me Cut the rope, I fell to my knees Born and bloodied Every single time [Chorus] Yeah, here comes the water It comes to wash away the sins of you and I This time, you see Like holy water It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry This time, with me [Outro] (Hey) (Hey) (Hey) [Spoken Word: Myles Kennedy] Hollywood, thank you so much You guys have been great Thanks for comin' out [Instrumental Outro] [Spoken Word: Slash] You guys Thank you so much, man Fuckin'– Great fuckin' crowd, man Makes us feel really at home, thank you We'll see you around Well, gotta fuckin' dedicate this to somethin', so Since we're in L.A. and fuckin' playin' here at the Roxy at one of my fuckin' Venues I was raised at We'll call this one for you guys This is "Paradise City"
