Lyrics:
He was as high as a kite
Leanin’ heavy at the bar
A legend everywhere
Killin’ demons with his guitar
Then out of his darkness
For a moment his eyes were clear
He called my name
Leaned his head
And dropped a whiskey tear
And he said…
Don’t follow me
You don’t wanna go where I have been
Don’t follow me
Get out of those lights
They blind ya…can’t you see
Get on home, boy
And don’t you follow me
It’s been years now
He’s still hangin’ on
And I made it to the top
Buyin’ demons of my own
But the walls are closin’ in
I’m leanin’ heavy at the bar
See his eyes
Hear him callin’ my name
Don’t follow me
You don’t wanna go where I have been
Don’t follow me
Get out of those lights
They blind ya…can’t you see
Get on home, boy
And don’t you follow me
You won’t find it down this way
The more the money the more the pain
You’ll believe there’s no way out
And all your heart can say
To love that comes your way is
Don’t follow me
Don’t follow me, yeah
Don’t follow me
He was as high as a kite
Leanin’ heavy at the bar
