[Intro]
F
Am F  D/F#  G            x4


[Verse 1]
Am            F         D/F#     G
You must have somethin' better to do
Am            F         D/F#  G
Than learn to shoot that gun
Am              F         D/F#  G
You could read some history
Am            F          D/F#   G
See how the West was really won


[Verse 2]
Bb                A
Kings may come, queens may go
Bb           A
Be wary of desire
Dm                      A
For when you think you need it most
G
That gun will misfire


[Instrumental]
Am  F   D/F#  G       x2

[Verse 3]
Am           F         D/F#    G
There's a message in Afghanistan
Am     F         D/F#  G
Opium wins their trust
Am      F            D/F#  G
Charlie Wilson, the communists
Am           F         D/F#  G
They hate to take a loss


[Verse 4]
Bb             A
Kings may live, lose their thrones
Bb                      A
They're junkies on the wire
Bb                           A
You can warn the south with nukes and drones
G
That gun will misfire


[Chorus]
C        D             Em
Remember me when I am gone
C        D                Em
I am the fool who got it wrong
C            D               Em
One thing I said you can rely on
Cadd9          Em
That gun will misfire


[Bridge]
Dsus2
Could be that fatal click
Dsus2
You'll wish you chose a knife
          Em7  Dsus2    Em7
A little toil, a little foil
Em7
Might have changed your life


[Instrumental]
Am  F   D/F#  G       x4


[Verse 5]
Am              F           D/F#     G
There is a plague, not far from here
Am              F         D/F#     G
Who likes to spread his seed
Am              F       D/F#     G
You may be the winning one
Am             F           D/F#     G
That feels the need to breed


[Verse 6]
Bb             A
When they play, they fly away
Bb                    A
Before they join the choir
Bb                               A
But please don't try it, for an easy out
G
That gun will misfire


[Chorus]
C        D            Em
Remember me when I am gone
C         D                      Em
I am the fool who got the ending wrong
C           D                   Em
One thing I said we're depending on
Cadd9          Em
That gun will misfire


[Verse 7]
Am           F           D/F#     G
You must have somethin' better to do
Am            F         D/F#     G
Than learn to shoot that gun
Am            F         D/F#     G
You coulda read some history
Am            F         D/F#
Seen how the West was really won
