Neon Over Tombstones
Produce a commercial, radio-ready cowboy country track for the artist 'cowboy country, modern country'. The song should combine twangy acoustic guitars, steel guitar, banjo, and subtle fiddle with polished modern production. Include catchy, sing-along vocal hooks and an instantly memorable chorus. Lyrics should tell a vivid cowboy story — open plains, rodeos, whiskey nights, and freedom of the wild west — with a modern, relatable twist. Use upbeat rhythms, dynamic builds, and moments for emotional impact. The final track must be energetic, hook-filled, and ready for streaming, social media virality, and country radio, evoking both classic western charm and contemporary commercial appeal.

Lyrics
Verse 1
I got blood on my knuckles, chrome in my hand,
Radio preaching ’bout a God that don’t understand.
Credit card sinners, saints on parole,
Whole damn town tryna sell me a soul.
Midnight humming from a V8 prayer,
Mama raised hell, daddy raised me unfair.
I don’t sleep much, I just fade out slow,
Dreams hit hard when the lights go low.
Pre-Chorus
They say change your ways, I say change your aim,
I don’t run from the past — I outride the blame.
Chorus
There’s neon over tombstones, whiskey in the rain,
I don’t need forgiveness, I just deal with the pain.
I don’t kneel for crowns, I don’t bow to thrones,
I ride where the living dance with bones.
Yeah, I’m hell-bound honest, heaven don’t want me,
Neon over tombstones — that’s home to me.
Verse 2
Sheriff got a badge and a brand-new lie,
I got three dead friends and a reason why.
She texts “I miss you” at half past two,
I type back nothing — that’s the truest truth.
City kids play cowboy for a TikTok fame,
I was raised on silence and gasoline shame.
If loving her’s wrong, then I’ll sin again,
I don’t pray for peace — I pray for end.
Pre-Chorus
They sell clean futures, I buy lost nights,
I don’t chase the sun — I steal moonlight.
Chorus
There’s neon over tombstones, static in my veins,
Every kiss tastes sweet like a beautiful mistake.
I don’t need a halo, I don’t need control,
Just a fast way out and a slow-burn soul.
Yeah, I’m hell-bound honest, heaven don’t own me,
Neon over tombstones — that’s home to me.
Bridge (Half-time, dark)
If I crash, don’t call it fate,
Call it speed mixed with hate.
Tell my story crooked, loud, and wrong,
That’s the only way it sounds like me.
Breakdown (modern drop feel)
Bass like thunder, heart like a gun,
I don’t fear the dark — I am the one.
Final Chorus
There’s neon over tombstones, sparks in the dust,
I don’t trust tomorrow — I trust the rush.
If the devil’s watching, tell him I’m free,
I don’t belong to heaven or history.
Yeah, I’m hell-bound honest, finally free,
Neon over tombstones — ride with me.
Outro
Kill the lights.
Start the engine.
Let the past try to catch me.
