G/B                      C           Bm/D
Like a corn in a field I cut you down
C/E                            F9
I threw the last punch too hard
      G/B                    
After years of going steady, 
       E9
well I thought that it was time
   Am7                               D11
To throw in my hand for a new set of cards
G/B                          
And I can't take you dancing 
C7         Bm/D
out on the weekend
C/E                              
I figured we'd painted too much 
        F9
of this town
      G/B                 
And I tried not to look 
                  E9
as I walked to my wagon
      Am7             D11       
And I knew then I had lost what 
D/Eb             Em7   A
should have been found
Am7               D11       
I knew then I had lost what 
                 C     G
should have been found


[Chorus]
Fm7               Bb                
And I feel like a bullet in the gun 
   Eb     C7
of Robert Ford
    Db            Eb
I'm low as a paid assassin is
             Ab        Cm/G  Fm   Eb
You know I'm cold as a hired sword
       Dm7b5                  Ab/Eb
I'm so ashamed can't we patch it up
         Db                          Db/C
You know I can't think straight no more
    Bbm7                             
You make me feel like a bullet honey 
       Bbm7/Eb             Db Ab
in the gun of Robert Ford


[Verse 2]
G/B                       C         Bm/D
Like a child when his toy have been stepped on
C/E                         F9
That's how it all seemed to me
G/B                E9
I burst the bubble that both of us lived in
        Am7                     
And I'm damned if I'll ever get 
                         D11
rid of this guilt that I feel
G/B                          C7       Bm/D
And if looks could kill then I'd be a dead man
C/E                                 F9
Your friends and mine don't call no more
G/B                         
Hell, I thought it was best 
               E9
but now I feel branded
              Am7            
Breaking up's sometimes like 
D11      D/Eb  Em7   A
breaking the   law 
              Am7            
Breaking up's sometimes like 
D11            C  G
breaking the   law 


[Chorus]
Fm7               Bb                
And I feel like a bullet in the gun 
   Eb     C7
of Robert Ford
    Db            Eb
I'm low as a paid assassin is
             Ab        Cm/G  Fm   Eb
You know I'm cold as a hired sword
       Dm7b5                  Ab/Eb
I'm so ashamed can't we patch it up
         Db                          Db/C
You know I can't think straight no more
    Bbm7                             
You make me feel like a bullet honey 
       Bbm7/Eb             Db Ab
in the gun of Robert Ford

[Solo]

[Chorus]
Fm7               Bb                
And I feel like a bullet in the gun

    Db            Eb
I'm low as a paid assassin is

You know I'm cold as a hired sword
       Dm7b5                  Ab/Eb
I'm so ashamed can't we patch it up
         Db                          Db/C
You know I can't think straight no more

You make me feel like a bullet honey 
       Bbm7/Eb             Db Ab
