Now listen to this, this is going to be special, very special.
Our next guest, a seven-time Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter and guitar
player.
Tomorrow, he will be inducting the late Stevie Ray Vaughan into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame.
But, yep, now listen, he's doing us a huge favor here tonight.
We asked him, would you be interested in performing this song?
And he said, well, I got to get in some road work.
I got to get in shape.
It's kind of a beast, but I'll give it a shot.
So he's going to do it for us tonight.
Ladies and gentlemen, performing, along with Paul and the kids in the band,
American Pie, here's John Mayer.
A long, long time ago, I can still remember how that music used to make me
smile.
And I knew if I had my chance, that I could make those people dance.
And maybe they'd be happy for a while.
February made me shiver with every paper I'd deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep.
I couldn't take one more step.
And I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widow bride.
Something touched me deep inside the day the music died.
So bye-bye, Miss American Pie, drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was
dry.
And the good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye, singing, this will be the
day that I die.
This will be the day that I die.
Did you write the book of love?
Do you have faith in God above?
If the Bible tells you so.
Do you believe in a rock and roll?
Can music save your mortal soul?
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Well, I know you're in love with him
Cause I saw you dancing in the jail
You both kicked off your shoes
And I did those bellum and blues
I was a lonely teenage
Bouncing book
With a pink condition and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of love
The day the music died
And we were singing
Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
And the good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singing, this will be the day that I die
This will be the day that I die
Now for ten years
We've been on our own
And the boss grew us fat on a rolling stone
But that's not how it used to be
When the justice sang for the king and queen
And the coat he borrowed from James Dean
In a voice that came for you and me
And while the king was looking down
The justice stole his thorn and crown
The justice stole his thorn and crown
The courtroom was a dream
And no verdict for wealth's return
And while Lennon read a book on marks
The court said the court said the court said the court said the court said
practice in the park
And we still sang the chest in the dark
The day the music died
And we were singing, we were singing, we were singing by, by this American God
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
And the good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singing, this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die

And this will be the day
And this will be the day that I die
We're clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in him
Could ever break that devil's spell
And as the flames climb high
To the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
And this will be the day that I die
