Lyrics

I met her buying iced tea
At the corner mini-mart
She was thirsty, I was hungry for a start
With somebody who wouldn't break my heart like the last one
But this one
She plays for all the marbles
Her Nietzsche books are conversation starters
And damn I think I loved her from the first sight
I saw the light
The clouds opened up
Rest in peace, good night

All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)
All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)
I'm blown away and I don't even know her name
All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)

Rock and roll sounds better in the car
I just love the way she plays guitar
When she dives down on the whammy bar
She'll be stuck on repeat, repeat in my head
Got me checkin' my pulse makin' sure I'm not dead
Oh yeah

All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)
All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)
I'm blown away and I don't even know her name
All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)

I thought
All of the good ones are gone
All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)
I'm blown away and I don't even know her name
All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from?)

All of the good ones are gone (Where did you come from now, baby?)
All of the good ones are gone (All along, feeling so alone now)
All of the good ones are gone (We could play Family Feud)
All of the good ones are gone (So where did you come from?)

Yeah
