      Am
Would Dylan be just a poet?
       C                                G
Would Bono ever know it, without those songs?
      Am
Would Marley be just a stoner?
         C                                   G
 Johnny Cash just be a loner, without those songs?
            Am
Would Buddy Holly have disappeared?
           C                                   G
Or would Lennon still be here, without those songs?

Chorus:
C                       Am
What happened in their lives?
                        Em
What happened in their hearts?
                              G
To make them wanna write the words
                            C
But gonna tear this world apart
                     Am
The beauty of their lives
                         Em
Is when they're dead and gone
                        G
The world still sings along
                   Am
When anything went right
                    C
When anything went wrong
                 G
You put it in a song

Would Elvis be just a look
Or The Rolling Stones be stuck without those songs?
Would Sinatra be just a gangster
Or would Jackson be just a dancer without those songs?
Would Madonna be just a face?
Or Nirvana be just a place without those songs?
