Heartbreaker is our tribute song to country/rock legend Tom Petty. Written after he died to let him know how he will be missed.

lyrics

Heartbreaker – The Purple Shoes

Verse
I’ve been thinking about you today
If you were here what would you say
You left so soon and nobody knew it was coming

A heartbreaker breaking rules
Keep it simple keep it cool
Even though I never knew you at all

Chorus
Did you figure it out, did you learn to fly
Are you free falling tonight?
American boy, do you know what you left behind
American boy, do you know what you left behind

Verse
If I could let my head go
Find a way to make it flow
It won’t be the last time I hear you sing tonight

Sitting in your little room
Playing chords till you go crazy
But knowing that you’ll never play again is the hardest part

Chorus
Did you figure it out, did you learn to fly
Are you free falling tonight?
American boy, do you know what you left behind

Did you figure it out, did you learn to fly
Are you free falling tonight?
American boy, do you know what you left behind
American boy, do you know what you left behind
G Bm C
Do you know what you left behind? X3
