Chords for Liz Longley - "The Gun and the Gold" at Cooldog Concerts

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
And either way I kill somebody in the end. _ _ _ _
This is probably a fictional storm. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ He said get on your knees and do what you're told.
_ He had his hands on the gun, his eyes on the gold.
_ And I was the gold, [A] I was the prize.
_ [C#m] But I wasn't gonna fold at an easy price.
_ I was paralyzed on the hardwood floor.
I couldn't find my voice, I couldn't find the door. _ _
So I prayed to God, he'd [A] burn in hell. _
Oh, [C#] and what he did I'll [C#m] never tell. _ _
_ _ Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, [C#m] ah, ah, _ _ _ _ _ _ ah.
When midnight came, he was fast asleep. _
_ I tiptoed slowly and the floorboard creaked.
But I had his gun, it was everything [A] I needed.
_ [C#m] Oh, the joy I felt as he begged and pleaded. _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] Ah, ah, _ [C#m] ah, ah, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Get on your knees and do [C#] what you're told.
_ [C#m] I had my hands on the gun, my eyes on the gold.
And I took my time, I aimed [A] real good.
_ [C#m] And I shot him where a smart girl would. _
Ah, _ _ _ [A] ah, _ ah, [C#m] ah, ah, ah, ah, _ [G#] _ ah, ah, ah, [Am] ah, ah, [G#] ah, ah.
[A] Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, [G#] ah, ah, ah, ah, [C#m] ah, ah, ah, ah, _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] _ _ ah.
Thank you so much. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ That's not the kind of song you can dedicate to someone,
but Ty, that was for you.
Ha ha ha ha ha. _ _ _
