I gave it all I have (Queen tribute song)

 
Like a clown he tried to hide the frowns
and just lived for live applause,
just lived the perfect storm, and galloped free
there was no rein, no bit between the teeth
with head held high.
but the posse rode with many guns
and dried the sap from his aching bones
the undertow and the overtones
 
Chorus
Wow the crowd, rock the stadium
and still the disc spins on, and on
the imprint that will never "Gone"
we sing, in reverence we hum
 
A coin that has no counterfeit
bare feeling, no matter how raw, or indiscreet
burned with a roman candle blaze
transcend like lightening through the clouds
lyrics shining like a jewelled decolletage.
they save us from a life passe
take the karaoke microphone
however good or bad remember, brilliance
his spirit haunts to this day
 
repeat Chorus
