[C]
[Am] [G#] [Am]
Woke up in a bad place, should probably get up so I'm not late
[G#] Stared at my phone for the past eight minutes at nothing my [C] head aches
Bottles empty by the lampshade, I'm out of Excedrin again, great
[Am] Too early to tell but at this rate, [G#] I'm thinking this might be [Am] a bad day
I walk out the bedroom, my roommates asleep on the couch with [G#] their toothpaste
Boyfriend who lives here but don't pay, a penny for rent but he [C] still stays
She says he's broke, I'm like no way, probably sells drugs but she won't say
[F#] Told me he dabbles in real estate, I mean [E] I don't believe it but [Am]
okay, okay
Pull out the driveway, notice my gas tank, [G#] sorry I'm here again
Well of course it is, guess I probably should stop at the gas station so I [C] take a right
Pull up to the pump, while it's pumping I look at my ashtray, then [F#] remember I need to get cigarettes
Anything [E] to help my mind [Am] state, so I park and walk in sideways
I should probably get something to drink and eat I [G#] guess, so I finally grab a couple bags of chips
Where's the candy aisle, oh yeah here it [C] is, which one should I get
Should I grab the Starburst or change it up and maybe grab the [F#m] Twix
Mmm, grab the Starburst and I started walking as I passed the [E] garbage and I reached the [A] fridge
I hear someone yelling at the front of the store, probably just a homeless guy [G#] getting bored
Probably just a customer whose car didn't work and now he wants to start a [C] war
Man I can't afford to keep buying energy drinks everyday I shut the [F#] door
Then turn around and as I'm heading towards the counter with my drink [E] I hear
Hey open up [A#] the drawer!
[C#m] Crouching on the floor, peek around the aisle, gun is on the floor
Head of the man that's behind the counter, now my heart is pounding and I'm praying to [B] the Lord
I don't die today, I can't die today, I got things to do, [C#m] trying not to shake
Plotted my escape, where's my cell phone at, left it in my car, icing on [Am] the cake
I start calling, I can hear him yelling, I want [F#m] every penny, I want every [C#m] dime
Once you finish with the cash, [B] open up the bag, throw [F#] some cigarettes [D] inside
Which ones do you want, which ones do you want, I'm not picky, give me [A] any kind
Give me all of them, yeah just toss them in, keep it moving, no I'm running low on time
I'd advise you to move a little quicker, trust me I don't wanna have to pull [F#] the trigger
I've done it before, it's not a pretty picture, what you don't [G#m] believe me?
I'm just [A] playing with you, well no I'm not, no I'm not, just do [F] what I say
Cause if you even think [A] of trying to pull a fast one on me, promise you'll be sorry
Oh my [E] driver's calling, I can't miss [B] my pickup
That's when I did something stupid and my jacket knocked [E] over a can of soup
And then it got quiet, did he hear me moving?
Hold my breath, he must've heard me do it, huh?
I'm assuming the noise must've made him turn his head enough to let the guy that was at gunpoint grab his own gun
Now they both got weapons, maybe I should help him sneak up, slow him [A] in, deck him
Time to go, time to go, time to go, it's gon' be a bloody miracle
Now I [B] never got it fired, any blessings coming in my future, could you send them to my present?
[C] Peek around the edge and I start running at him, he don't see me coming, does he?
[F#] Stepping closer, grab his neck and hold him, squeezing on his throat, I'm trying to choke him, then his elbow hits [A] my nose and
Pinky broke it, I pinky broke it, my blood is [B] leaking all over my toes, I tried
Now the leg of my hip begin to slip and bullets start [C] to fly
Can't see out my eyes, cashier still [B] alive?
I can't tell, I'm trying to [F#] crawl away, here comes another guy
[A] He cruised inside like, where's the money?
Did you get the money?
Where's the bag you brought?
[F#] I don't know, I think it's still behind the counter, probably by the cashier I just [C] shot
Who's this on the floor?
Who's this on the floor?
I don't know, or did they call the cops?
[B] He runs up to me, then he grabs my shoulder as he flips me over, [E] then my jaw drops
[Am] Cause I thought his voice sounded real familiar, he's got a mask on but the shirt he's wearing [Bm] is the same one he had on this morning
Staring in my eyes, I know he knows, I know, embarrass [Am] me, hands above me, he says sorry Aaron
But I don't have a choice, he holds the barrel [E] up, through my head I scream, you can't be serious
He shakes his head and says I'm sorry, then the [N] gun
[Am]
Cashier yells to ask if I'm okay, he's dialing 911
[E]
I run over to him, grab his phone and try to help him out
[Am] 911, what's your emergency?
It's been a robbery, the cashier was shot, he needs an [E] ambulance
He looks kinda pale, I think he might've lost a [Am] lot of blood
Okay, help is on the way, was anyone injured?
Yeah, the robbers, there were two of them
[E] Can you tell me their condition?
Well, I'm not really sure but they [Am] don't look so good
I'm pretty sure they're dead
[A] Yeah, I think they're dead
