The Ballad of Jimi
The Jimi Hendrix Experience

This is a song dedicated to the memory of my best friend. His name was Jimi.nnMe and my best friend travelled down life's highway.nWe talked of how things should be,nOf peace and love for you and me.nOf a life without hate.nOf a life filled with love.nOn that first day, he played my guitar.nSomehow I knew, we travelled far,nWe travelled fine, his distant star.nMany things he would try,nFor he knew soon he'd die.nOh, why did it happen?nAll the sadness, he is gone.nBut he left us something that time can't erase.nNow he's loved by us all.nYes, he's loved by us all.nThat is my story. It has no end.nNow Jimi's gone, he's not alone.nHis memory still lives on.nLike the fox that he named,nThough they still gained less pain.nnFive years, this he said.nHe's not gone, he's just dead.
