_ _ Oh, [G] ain't it lonely when you're [A] living with a [G] gun? _ _
[F#m] Well, you can't slow [G] down and you can't turn [A] around, yet you can't trust anyone. _
[G] _ [F#m] You just sit there [G] like a gunner's rifle, [A] yet you're all [G] encased in glass.

[F#m] Oh, [G] _ ain't [A] it lonely when you're living [G] with a gun?

_ _ [F#m] He can drive you mad, [G] he can make you sad, [A] he can keep you from [G] the sun. _ _
[F#m] When they take him down, he'll [G] be both safe and sound, and a hand just for the blood. _
And [F#m] oh, now, what they tell you, there's blood and [A] evil in everyone.
