You've been walking in Chicago, you've been standing in the rain
With a goldtop in your fingers, you made blood turn into pain
Like a thousand broken promises, the angels called your name
They took you some place higher, now I'll never be the same
Well, I shook your hand in Memphis as we waited for the train
You thought I was your rider, and I thought you were insane
Like a thousand busted dreams, I thought it was a lie
When they called you up to heaven, I sat right down and cried
Now that you're gone, the sky has become
A deeper shade of blue
Now that you're gone, the sky has become
A deeper shade of blue
The first night that I saw you, I knew you were a star
On a lonely night in Paris, we were slayed by your guitar
And when the night was over, there was ringing in our ears
Your guitar was gently weeping, like it never had in years
Now that you're gone, the sky has become
A deeper shade of blue
Now that you're gone, the sky has become
A deeper shade of blue
A deeper shade of blue
Oh now that you're gone, the sky has become
A deeper shade of blue
Now that you're gone, the sky has become
A deeper shade of blue
