Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Since you've gone to heaven, I don't like comin' home
But I can't stand the thought of mom in that big house alone
She can't keep it up, she really oughta sell
Oh, that house without you in it is nothing but a shell
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
[Verse 2]
Everybody says that Billy is lookin' more and more like you
But he won't talk about you until he's had a few
He dropped out of college, he's in and out of jail
Had to pawn the pocket watch last month to post his bail
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
[Verse 3]
And I hate you had to leave us
But glad you didn't live to see this
Broken pieces of the family you made
Mama's lookin' so much older
Baby brother can't stay sober
I bet you're rollin' over in your grave
[Verse 4]
Since you've gone to heaven, they shut the salt mill down
Guys you worked for thirty years with have all moved out of town
There's signs in every storefront, seems like everything's for sale
They say the markets bouncin' back, but it's sure hard to tell
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
[Verse 5]
And I hate you had to leave us
But glad you didn't live to see this
The broken pieces of the Norman Rockwell lakes
The banks are takin' over
Half the town is in foreclosure
I bet you're rollin' over in your grave
[Verse 6]
Since you've gone to heaven, I've struggled with goodbye
And broke a lot of promises I made the day you died
Wish I was more like you, less like myself
And I wish that I could talk to you 'cause I could use your help
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
[Verse 7]
Since you've gone to heaven
