Guitar Or A Gun

	  		Intro: Em G Dsus2 Cadd9 (2X) 

   Em                G                   Dsus2 
A cool September morning, waitin' on the pawn shop to let me in 
               Em                          G        Dsus2 
Two Hundred Dollars worth of summer yard mowin', that I just had to spend 
   Em            G                     Dsus2 
I had my eye on two things, but I could only pick just one 
         Am                             D              Em G Dsus2 Cadd9    Em G Dsus2 Cadd9 
A young man's first decision; is it a guitar or a gun? 

       Em                        G      Dsus2 
I can still hear daddy's voice say "now think about it sonâ?� 
         Em                     G         Dsus2 
?One of these will last forever, and the other's just for fun 
Em                   G                Dsus2 
One can feed your family, and one will end you up in jail"  
         Am                                    D                 Em 
And he seemed to know which one was which, but me, I couldn't tell 


          C                   G         Dsus2                Em 
I could learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run,  
        C               G                Dsus2 
Play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well that just sounds like fun 
    C               G            Dsus2           Em  
A rock star or an outlaw, well, either way I've won,  
     C                 G           D            Em 
When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun 


        Em              G               Dsus2 
I've thought about it long and hard, as I held 'em in my hand  
Em                  G              Dsus2 
Standin' at the crossroads, still decidin? who I am 
         Em                  G         Dsus2 
They're both just wood and metal. Six bullets or six strings 
Am                                          D              Em 
Whichever choice I make I'll leave here feeling like a king 

 
          C                   G         Dsus2                Em 
I could learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run,  
        C               G                Dsus2 
Play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well that just sounds like fun 
    C               G            Dsus2           Em  
A rock star or an outlaw, well, either way I've won  
     C                 G           D           Em
