Madmen crawl across the wall
Knight gets away, the kings all fall
Queens chase men and saints all sin
And good things all must end

But she goes on forever
She goes on forever
She's gonna shine forever
Like a diamond in the sunlight

Big full moon above the road
I'm a long long way from tomorrow
Gotta light my way down this highway
To get to her

'Cause she goes on forever
She goes on forever
Yeah, she's gonna shine forever
Like a diamond in the sunlight

Deacons steal and Ma can't feel
If you're lonely and behind the wheel
When the ground gives way
You have to pray to the unknown
And hope it's real

But she goes on forever
She goes on forever
Yeah, she's gonna shine forever

She goes on forever
She goes on forever
Yeah, she's gonna shine forever
Like a diamond in the sunlight

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers – an L.A.-based gang of sharp-dressed garage-rock refugees from Gainsville, Florida – released their debut LP in November 1976, featuring two tracks which are now part of their long list of hits, “Breakdown” and “American Girl.”

Since that first LP in ‘76, the band’s style has epitomized and largely defined the American “heartland rock” movement – a vintage-guitar twang, hard lyric truth, and searing vocal attitude.

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have been nominated for 17 Grammy awards and sold more than 80 million records worldwide, making them one of the world’s best-selling bands of all-time.
