[Verse 1]
So the ambulances came
They took your pulse, packed up your things
And the papers read
Some boys forget what the heartache brings
And the pounding in the street
Was your heart in 4/4 time
And the taste of defeat
Was never too far from your mind
[Chorus]
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
And in my head, there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
I always kinda sorta wished I was someone else
[Verse 2]
So gravity came
And stole the temple that the schoolboys praised
And the crowd shuffled in
You're getting drinks for the same boys who once bought you everything
And the powder on the bar
Was just this one time
The powder on the bar
Was just this one night and only to get by
So the ambulances came
They took your pulse, packed up your things
And the papers read
Some boys forget what the heartache brings
And the pounding in the street
Was your heart in 4/4 time
And the taste of defeat
Was never too far from your mind
[Chorus]
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
And in my head, there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
I always kinda sorta wished I was someone else
[Verse 2]
So gravity came
And stole the temple that the schoolboys praised
And the crowd shuffled in
You're getting drinks for the same boys who once bought you everything
And the powder on the bar
Was just this one time
The powder on the bar
Was just this one night and only to get by
