[E]
He was drunk, [B] depressed, and crazy [A] when he bought [B] himself the gun
[A] Or the counter in some pawn shop [B] on South Main
[E] Won't feel [B] that cool steel, [A] and he [B] gratefully unwanted
[A] The last [B] $50 [E] to his name
But he won't [B] back to the [A] subdivision, [B] into the house
[A] Paul started to show her [B] his new gun
[E] Well, she stopped [B] packing right [A] away when he put it [B] to her head
[A] And told her, [B] playing as I still [E] love you, hon
[B] CRF, black salmon, blue [A] steel, and it's too [E] late to run
[B] The romance was gone when [E] that first bruise
[B] Steve Gilbert, Don Shun, and [A] Rose had the barrel [E] of a gun
[A] And locked on [B] to make the ten o [E]'clock news
Well, she waited [B] till it passed [A] out, and then she dashed [B] the cigarette out
[A] In a crumpled pile of her old [B] wedding gown
She [E] phoned [B] right to Fred [A] Krickberg out of corner [B] of the perch
[A] And snopped [B] into a pawn shop [E] with Val
He cracked her credit [B] card, and told [A] this to tell her [B] he still loved her
[A] He found her waiting tables [B] in some bar
She [E] smiled [B] and said, oh darling, [A] spread her hand [B] underneath her apron
[A] And she blew a [B] hole right through that [E] fucker's heart
[B] [A]
[E] [B] [E]
[B] [A]
[E] [A] [B] [E]
Well, he acquitted [B] her of grounds, [A] put a gun in [B] his gold hand
[A] Still she don't smile much since that [B] bloody day
[E] The [B] UPS packed both the [A] guns, inherited [B] and owned
[A] So she stole them [B] at a softball shop [E] on South Main
[B] CRF, black salmon, blue steel, [A] and it's too [E] late to run
[B] The romance was gone, and [E] that's birth proof
[B] Stick, you, fid, don, shun, and Rose [A] had the barrel [E] of a gun
[A] And locked on [B] to make the ten o [E]'clock news
[B] Stick, you, fid, don, shun, and Rose [A] had the barrel [E] of a gun
[A] And locked on [B] to make the ten o [E]'clock news
