After the bad guy killed off all the
 underdeveloped characters
 F#m                      A
The good guy put a bullet right 
through his head
                                E
The screenwriter stood up and told 
us that all the loose ends had been
               F#m

problems and pointed their fingers 
at addiction
        F#m                D      
'Cause they know if you're doin' the

When rock and roll first came around
 the preachers all went crazy
  F#m                  D          
But soon that wasn't enough to 
  A
bring people in the door
A                     E
So now they jump on any scandal that
 they can to try and save me
F#m                     D
