[Intro]
D Bm G D
D Bm
He motioned to me from across the street
G D
His arms waving madly "Come over to me"
D Bm
I saw the panic as he approached
G D
We both ran quickly to the house
Em D
Where the windows were shot out
D Bm
He lay there bleeding on the floor
G D
My mother beside him screaming "Dear Lord
Em D
Someone shot my boy"
D Bm
I held his hand till the ambulance came
G D
Then onto a stretcher they took him away
D Bm
I followed close from the car behind
G D
The lights and the sirens both dull in my mind
Em D
November 9
D Bm
Killed by a bullet from a jealous gun
G D
It rattled his eyelids and pierced through his lungs
Em D
The damage was now done
D Bm
He was seen by her lover the night before
G D
Swearing to kill him outside her door
D Bm
To her defense my brother walked out
G D
Raising his fists and screaming "Get out
Em D
It's me she's with now!"
D Bm
Hotel hospital the tears burned my eyes
G D
I slipped into nighttime and deep into dying
Em D
Without even trying.
