        A                            E 
It’s so sad but true that girl won’t make it through the night 
    G#m                            C#m 
The bullet cuts so deep inside, no one can stop it now 
    A                        E 
The blood is ___ there is no need for her to bleed 
    G#m                             C#m 
The body crumbles, her head is down oh what am I 
          A 
She won’t make it (she won’t make it) 
       E 
No one makes it (no one makes it) 
G#m                  C#m 
Cause I’ll get her tonight 
          A 
She won’t make it (she won’t make it) 
       E 
No one makes it (no one makes it) 
G#m                  C#m 
Cause I’ll get her tonight 




Verse: 
          A                     E 
Since the day I was born with a gun in my hand 
      G#m                     C#m 
I was heading for this bitter end 
   A                    E 
My life, my passion, my goal wasn’t then 
   G#m                C#m 
To become the man I became 
  A              E    
A life in prison is what I’ll find 
G#m                      C#m 
After this night in this lonesome town 
A                     E 
Haunted by demons and armed with a gun 
     G#m             C#m 
I’ll get them one by one

Cause I’ll get her tonight 
          A 
She won’t make it (she won’t make it) 
       E 
No one makes it (no one makes it) 
G#m                  C#m 
Cause I’ll get her tonight

Verse: 
  A                                E 
I cried and I reached for help way back when I was young 
G#m                     C#m 
No one listened and the demons grew strong

A poor boy gone astray
