Richie Sambora writes song for drug addicts

Rock guitarist Richie Sambora has written a track to help drug addicts.
The 54-year-old Bon Jovi musician has written 'Lighthouse' which he played at an event raising awareness about heroin and painkiller abuse in New Jersey.
The proceeds from its sale will go towards a drug treatment facility planned for the region, reported Contactmusic.
"Everyone needs that light when they're far off the shore," Sambora said.
The musician, who has battled drug addiction himself, had originally named the song 'Needles on the Shore', but decided to change it because he wanted to do something 'optimistic'.
During the gig, Sambora spoke about his own past drug abuse after spending time in rehab.

"I got first-hand experience. I never did heroin, but obviously I did other stuff," he said.
