God is a Bullet

Em  D  C  Em

[Verse]
Em
There's a green plaid jacket on the 
back of the chair
            D
It's like a moment frozen forever 
there
        C                          
Mom and Dad had a lot of big plans 
                   Em
for their little man
 D
So proud
 Em
Mama's gone crazy 'cause her baby's 
cut down
          D
By some teenage car chase, war out 
of bounds
             C                     
It was the wrong place, wrong time,
                    Em
 wrong end of a gun
  D
Sad

[Chorus]
Em
(Shoot!)Shoot straight
Em
(Shoot!) From the hip, y'all
Em
(Shoot!)Gone forever in a trigger 
slip
           D
Well, it could have been
                         C
It could have been your brother
Em
(Shoot!) Shoot straight
Em
(Shoot!) Shoot to kill, yeah
D
Blame each other, well, blame 
yourself
           C
You know, God is a bullet

Have mercy on us everyone

[Verse]
Em
They're gonna call me sir, they'll 
all stop fucking with me
             D
Well, I'm a high school grad, I'm 
over five-foot-three
            C                      
I'll get a badge and a gun and I'll
              Em
 join the P.D
      D
They'll see
 Em
He didn't want to use the gun they 
put in his hand
             D
But when the guy came at him, well, 
he panicked and ran
            C                
And it's a very long year, so 
                                 Em
they'll give him another chance
  D
And it's sad

[Chorus]
Em
(Shoot!)Shoot straight
Em
(Shoot!) From the hip, y'all
Em
(Shoot!)Gone forever in a trigger 
slip
           D
Well, it could have been
                         C
It could have been your mother
Em
(Shoot!) Shoot straight
Em
(Shoot!) Shoot to kill, yeah
D
Blame each other, well, blame 
yourself
           C
You know God is a bullet
       D            C      Em
Have mercy on us everyone
