Blue Ruin

C
One morning after drinking
B            C
Heavy in the night
F                                 
Every inch of my poor bones seemed
                     C     F   C
 to ache and moan in wait
              Dm
Cause all our troubles come tomorrow
         F                       
We'll be gone and then it's on to 
           Cmaj7
Christmas Day

[Pre-Chorus]
C
If Jesus had been born
B                C    F   C
Just eleven days before
F
Would the world have stopped to see

At least those on the street
           Cmaj7    F    C
Headed for Newtown
        Dm
And of all those on their way
          F
Could the miracle have made
             C    F    C
One lay his guns down?

[Verse 2]
C
That trigger stole his mind
B           C    F   C
How am I to blame
           F                  
I bet you never even aimed at 
Cmaj7  F   C
one
                  Dm
There's too many people killing 
people
   F
To put an end to evil
            C   F   C
What can be done?

[Pre-Chorus]
         F
Well for now who'd like to tell me
               Em       Am
On that morning when 27 fell
        Dm
How any lesson in counting
            F                      
Could ever, ever amount to watching
       C
 them fall
        G
And why worst of all
     F         C         F
Come Christmas morning
                 Am
They'll still be gone

[Instrumental Chorus]
Fmaj7    Cmaj7  F C
Oooo...yeah
Fmaj7    Cmaj7  F C
Oooo...Oooo

One morning after drinking
B            C
Heavy in the night
  Fmaj7                        
I stopped to take a look at the 
                           Cmaj7   
crook that stole this holiday
  F   C

          Dm
Well this Christmas
        F
My only wish is
                  Cmaj7  F   C  F  C
We put these guns away
