_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ I got [Dm] a gun [A] in my hand [E] but the gun [A] won't cock
[D] My finger's on the [A] trigger [E] but that trigger [A] seems locked
[D] I can't stop [Am] [E] staring at the [A] tick-tock [D] clock
And even if [A] I could I [E] would [A] never give up
[D] With a vest [A] on my [E] chest, a bullet [A] in my lung
[D] I can't [A] believe I'm [E] dying with my [A] song [D] unsung
And if [A] and when I die [E] won't you bury [A] me alone
[D] Cause I'll never [A] get to heaven [E] if I'm singing [Em] [A] this _ song _ _
[Bm] _ [A] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [C#m] _
[D] [A] If there was nothing wrong would you be all so strong
Would you do what [E] if this movie's full of [A] life and love
[E] I'd like to think I would, you know [A] I'd like to think I would
But I can guarantee there won't be, it's not the end of the game
Never doubt you [D] make a point, [A] make a cat a boy
You can't see it but in the end you have no choice
And you know, [D] so [A] you can wait, let it grow
Set a ride, then let it, wait, let it go
And the days and the days will seem like forever _
And the days and the days will seem like forever
But forever and ever and I will sing [D] songs
[A] Promise you won't be long, I don't have to be [D] long
But I don't [A] wanna get this narrow
I was a kid who [D] never cared [A] about the little things
Don't even bother cause I'm tired and I'm sick of it
And every time she [D] make a point, [A] make a cat a boy
She [C#m] said it's easy [D] but in the end you have [A] no choice
And you know, so you can wait, let it grow
Set a ride, [D] then let [E] it, wait, let it go
_ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] I got [A] a gun in my hand, I'm a 12-4 clock
And my fingers [E] on the trigger, but the trigger's [D] being locked
And I can't [E] stop there, now the things [Bm] are blocking
[A] Even if I'm good I will never [D] give up
[A] With a vest on my chest, a bullet in my lung
I can't believe I'm dying with my song [Dm] unsung
[A] And if and when I die won't you bury me alone
I'll never get to heaven if I'm singing [B] this song
Keep my [Bm] love, keep my love, keep my love
Keep [A] my love, [D] _
[A] _ _ _ _ [B] _ keep my [Bm] love, keep [D] _ _ _ [A] _ _ [Bm] my [A] love
Keep my love
You _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ [A] _ [D] _ [A] find [E] your son's [Bm] bride, what you do about [E] this fight
You think you were [Bm] rocking, maybe [A] someone else was running around
I'd like [E] to think it would, [Bm] you know I'd like [A] to think it would
But I [E] can't guarantee that what you did [A] is not a pun
You shut back [Bm] the day we [A] met and then fuck that
[D] You then [A] wait forever, I let you [D] down, I [A] wanna have you
You take [E] it down and [D] I'm the one [A] you're looking on through
And the days and the days seem like forever
_ And the days and the days seem like forever
But [D] forever is [A] never enough, I like [Bm] to sing songs
It [A] won't be long, I have to be loved
[D] But I don't wanna [Am] get this way wrong
No other shit would ever [Bm] get about [A] this little thing
Don't bother cause it still don't give a shit
And every time you make [D] it boy, they make [A] it kinda boy
Shit's easy but [D] it ain't, then you [A] have to do it
And you know, [Bm] you're doing it the [A] way that it goes
You said it right man, [D] that is the [E] way that it _ goes
_ [B] I _ [D] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] got a [A] gun in [E] my hand like a global [D] con
And my [A] fingers on the trigger, but the trigger seems [Bm] locked
And I [A] guess I'm nervous, it's a sick dark [Bm] closet
[A] Even if I'm good, I will never give [D] up
With a [A] bat in my chest, a bullet in my [D] lung
I [A] can't believe I'm dying when my soul is [D] long
And [A] even when I die, I will be buried [D] alone
Cause I'll [A] never get out of it if I'm singing this [B] song
Oh, you got the, [Bm] you got the, you got the, [A] you got _ the
Oh, _ _ [D] _ _
[B] you got the, you [D] got the, you got the, you got the
[A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

So tell me friend, how's it gonna end
When the sheets go down and there's no one left to run and get you back
You'll crack a smile and agree with everything they say
They try to tell you that it's all okay _ _ _ _
But it's [E] not in your shot, you're [D] bleeding pretty [A] bad
And you can't stop [E] thinking about the things you never [A] had
Like a [E] wife and a kid and the [Dm] things you never [Am] did
[E] Running around living a life that's [D] empty in the [A] end, my friend
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _
[B] No, _ [D] you'll take back all [Am] you've [E] said
_ [D] _ _ [E] _ _ [B] _
Oh, _ [D] and the regrets [E] will [A] all end
[D] _ [A] _ [E] _ _ [D] _
[B] Trust me, I've been there [G] before, I would not wish it [B] upon
My greatest enemy, [G#] what I need, my friends, but [B] I'm fine
_ You'll have [G] to [D] learn this lesson [A] on your [F#m] own
[A] _ _ [D] _ [A] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
So I [A] waited by the phone, but the [D] phone never [A] rang
And I sang so loud so I wouldn't [D] hear the bang
[A] When the bang never came and I never [D] got a call
[A] Fuck it, thank you, I love [D] you all
Some are gonna say [E] that we're [D] screwed, we're seen
Our [E] lives have been straight, but [D] that's not me
Even [A] if it was, [E] I would [Bm] always celebrate
Cause in [E] the end, though, we got the better [D] of us
I got a gun [Am] in my hand, perfect job, [D] oh God
[Am] Yeah, my fingers on the trigger, but the [D] trigger's being blocked
[A] And I can't stop there, I'm sick, [D] I'm blocked
[A] But even if I'm good, I will never give up
With the best of my chest, the bullet in my lungs
I live a little down with my daughter-in-law
Living with a gun, but the better [D] be alone
[A] Cause I never can have it if I'm living [B] alone
Oh, _ [Bm] _ [D] I'm taking [A] where I've been
_ _ _ _ _ [B]
Oh, _ _ [Bm] I'm taking where _ [A]
I've been
_ [A] _ _ _ [E] _ [A] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [F#m] _ [C#m] _ [Bm] _
