[First Part]

C       G       C      G
Seven long years, I waited for you
C         G       D
You played your games, I played
  Em
Mine too
 B         Em
While I wait for you
C       G       C     G
Courting calls and lots of hurt
C         G           D
Girls are crying and I'm lying in
 Em
The dirt
 B          Em
Trying to make this work
  B7       Em    B7        Em
I'm a big jerk, fooled by your smirk

( C  G  C ) 
( G  C  G )
( D  Em  B7  Em )

[Second Part]

C           G     C
Pulled out your gun, shooting me
    G
With words
C           G       D
Right through the head, oh, just
       Em
Like I deserve
B7         Em
Throw me to the curb
C       G
All them old folks
C          G
Gathering round me
C        G        D
Point and laugh, oh, while they
     Em
Watch me bleed
 B7          Em
I'm starting to believe
 B7          Em
This is not a dream
 B7       Em
Completely obsene

( C  G  C )
( G  C  G )
( D  Em  B7  Em )

[Terceira Parte]

C   G         C       G
Bury me, in the cold hard ground
C     G
Throw my body in
D          Em
While I'm lying down
B7           Em
Then you steal my crown
C        G
Before you leave me
C         G
Lying in the dirt
C         G
Take off my boots
  D          Em
And give em to the herd
B7         Em
All them sad words
B7         Em
Beaten and disturbed
B7       Em
Company deserved

( C  G  B  Em )

[Outro]

C        G
Take off my boots
B         Em
And I will love you
