Guns N’ Roses<\/a> have released new music for the first time in two years, including the song “Atlas.”<\/p>\n “Atlas” is one of two song titles referenced by the band\u00a0when\u00a0it dropped its\u00a02026 tour dates<\/a>\u00a0on Nov. 24.<\/p>\n At the time, it was announced that both “Atlas” and “Nothin'” would be\u00a0out on Dec. 2. The release was delayed two days for unspecified reasons, with both tracks coming out on Dec. 4 instead.<\/p>\n “Atlas” lets Axl Rose<\/a>‘s vocals take on more of the heavy lifting. The song takes off at its start rather than slowly working its way to a mighty Slash<\/a> guitar solo. It’s more along the lines of classic Guns N’ Roses compared to “Nothin’.”<\/p>\n Both songs will be released on 7-inch vinyl and a Guns N’ Roses store exclusive cassette with pre-orders for both beginning Dec. 12.<\/p>\n [Verse 1] [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Verse 2] [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Solo]<\/p>\n [Chorus] As Guns N’ Roses close out 2025 with new music, they are setting themselves up for a big 2026 when they are scheduled for a massive world tour<\/a>.<\/p>\nWhat You Should Know About ‘Atlas’<\/h3>\n

Guns N’ Roses’ “Atlas” Lyrics (per Genius<\/a>)<\/h3>\n
Why should I try and judge the things they say
That just won\u2019t budge, I\u2019m letting\u2005go
And\u2005sheltered from the\u2005blind
So you managed to be kind
But\u2005still enough to show me how to keep it together
When I\u2019m crying out in vain
No matter who\u2019s to blame
There\u2019s still a ways to go
So, if you ask me to believe your heart won\u2019t follow you
It\u2019s got a mind of its own<\/p>\n
When it says \u201cRun\u201d and the road gets rough
And you\u2019re the one
Whose shoulders just ain\u2019t wide enough
Whose shoulders shrug when they\u2019ve had enough<\/p>\n
I\u2019d be the last to say, “don\u2019t follow your heart”
But there\u2019s more to what it takes to be a man
Than what you’ve known
What you\u2019ve shown
Than that we know you understand<\/p>\n
It’s not the thing, if I were you
I would say all that I do
To be half as strong, or still belong
If you should take the time
To look back at what you find
Your heart misadventures<\/p>\n
When it says \u201cRun\u201d and the road gets rough
And you\u2019re the one
Whose shoulders just ain\u2019t wide enough
Whose shoulders shrug when they\u2019ve had enough<\/p>\n
I\u2019d be the last to say, “don\u2019t follow your heart”
But there\u2019s more to what it takes to be a man
Than what you’ve known
What you\u2019ve shown
Than that we know you understand
In fact, I never said, “don\u2019t follow your heart”
If I thought that’s what it takes to make a man
From what you’ve known
All that you\u2019ve been shown
Gee, even now I’d hope you’d understand<\/p>\n
