I Feel Like a Bullet

G                                
Like a corn in a field I cut you 
D
down
Am                         F7/9
I threw the last punch too hard
      G                            
After years of goin' steady, well I
  E7
 thought that it was time
    Am                             
To throw in my hand for a new set 
   C/D
of cards
G/B                               
And I can't take you dancin' out 
       D
on the weekend
  Am                               
I figured we'd painted too much of 
     F7/9
this town
       G                           
And I tried not to look as I walked
       E7
 to my wagon
      Am               D      
And I knew then I had lost what 
   D#º             Em7 A7
should have been fou-nd
  Am               D              
I knew then I had lost what should
           C   G
 have been found
Fm                Bb7            
And I feel like a bullet in the 
      Eb     C
gun of Robert Ford
    C#                D#
I'm low as a paid assassin is
             G#        D#/G    Fm
You know I'm cold as a hired sword
         Bº                       G#
I'm so ashamed, can't we patch it up
           C#
You know I can't think straight no

You make me feel like a bullet, 
                C#/D#
honey, in the gun
                     C#/G#  G#
In the gun of Robert Ford
G                                 
Like a child when his toys have 
    D
been stepped on
Am                          F7/9
That's how it all seemed to me
  G                     E7
I burst the bubble that both of us 
lived in
        Am                         
And I'm damned if I'll ever get rid
                      C/D
 of this guilt that I feel
G/B                               
And if looks could kill then I'd 
    D
be a dead man
Am                                
Your friends and mine don't call 
  F7/9
no more
G                                 
Hell, I thought it was best but 
         E7
now I feel branded
               Am            
Breaking up is sometimes like 
 D        D#º Em7  A7
breakin' the law
