Heartbreaks and Highwaymen

Story Behind The Song

I always wanted to write an uptempo murder ballad epic rocker in Am and I guess it just fell together for this one.

Song Description

The lyrics are Robert Earl Keen inspired but with more classical allusions. I admit I lifted the A section right from Last Dance With Mary Jane but so did the rest of the world.
