C       G       C      G 
Seven long years, I waited for you 
C         G       D 
You played your games, I played 
  Em 
Mine too 
 B         Em 
While I wait for you 
C       G       C     G 
Courting calls and lots of hurt 
C         G           D 
Girls are crying and I'm lying in 
 Em 
The dirt 
 B          Em 
Trying to make this work 
  B7       Em    B7        Em 
I'm a big jerk, fooled by your smirk

C           G     C 
Pulled out your gun, shooting me 
    G 
With words 
C           G       D 
Right through the head, oh, just 
       Em 
Like I deserve 
B7         Em 
Throw me to the curb 
C       G 
All them old folks 
C          G 
Gathering round me 
C        G        D 
Point and laugh, oh, while they 
     Em 
Watch me bleed 
 B7          Em 
I'm starting to believe 
 B7          Em 
This is not a dream 
 B7       Em 
Completely obsene 

( C  G  C )

( D  Em  B7  Em ) 


C   G         C       G 
Bury me, in the cold hard ground 
C     G 
Throw my body in 
D          Em 
While I'm lying down 
B7           Em 
Then you steal my crown 
C        G 
Before you leave me 
C         G 
Lying in the dirt 
C         G 
Take off my boots 
  D          Em 
And give em to the herd 
B7         Em 
All them sad words 
B7         Em 
Beaten and disturbed 
B7       Em 
Company deserved 

( C  G  B  Em ) 

Final:

C        G 
Take off my boots 
B         Em 
And I will love you
