The Great Divide Lyrics
Jason Bonham (Feat. Joe Bonamassa)
Lyrics
Now you know
I'm not a savior
Let me make it
Understood
And the shirt upon
My back is all i own
I don't wanna be
A loner
So I go against the grain
And I feel the blood
Is rushin' through my veins
I cant fake it
And I crucify myself
I have been shot down
By a stone
I'm gonna walk
Across the state line
Gotta take a
Higher road
I'm on the great divide
I'm sanctified
Be by your side
I hope we don't collide
So let me ride
The great divide
It's beautiful
I don't live in superstition
Gonna let my freak flag fly
Gotta black cat moan
My conscience is
My guide
And I use my intuition
There's a liar and a thief
And I've been to hell
Before you were my friend
I can't fake it
And I crucify myself
I have been shot down
By a stone
I'm gonna walk
Across the state line
Gotta take a
Higher road
I'm on the great divide
I'm sanctified
Be by your side
I hope we don't collide
So let me ride
The great divide
It's beautiful
I can't fake it
And I crucify myself
I have been shot down
By a stone
I'm gonna walk
Across the state line
Gotta take a
Higher road
I'm on the great divide
I'm sanctified
Be by your side
I hope we don't collide
So let me ride
The great divide
It's beautiful
It's beautiful
It's beautiful
