7-9 Legendary Lyrics

[Verse]
I got that midnight tennis elbow
Got the solitaire rugburn
Took a turn
An ace up my sleeve (so to speak)

[Verse 2]
I want to choke
And get sick off of you
Like secondhand smoke
You got me sweating like Calcutta nights
Just heat and epiphany

[Pre-Chorus]
I am a wing (wing)
I'm a prayer (prayer)
A thimble and an acorn
A promise from a poor apothecary
To an understudy in love forlorn


I'll give you heatstroke
I'm getting you and I'm losing me

[Chorus]
We'd get legendary
Tonight little darlin'
Uh huh, little darlin'
But I've got a nomadic head
I love you but I've caught the doom and the dread
We'd get legendary
Tonight little darlin'
Uh huh, little darlin'
But I've got a nomadic head
I love you but I've caught the doom and the dread

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
