[Intro]
C#m A D E Bm F#m
[Verse 1]
F#m C#m
Another shooting on the southeast side
This a drive-by, mid-day
A
Outside of the bus stop, by Fuller and Franklin
D E
Or near there, not far from the park
Bm B F#m
About a block from where the other shooting was last month
Or was it last week?
C#m A
Shots were fired from an SUV heading northbound, Eastown
D E
The target a rival but they didn’t hit the target this time
D F#m
They hit a kid we think had nothing to do with it
A B
And I travel backwards through time and space and
F#m
I disintegrate, become invisible
F#m
I wanna see it where I couldn’t when it happened
D C#m F#m F#
I wanna see it all first hand this time
D C#m A
I want to know what it felt like
F#m D C#
So I float behind police lines
C#m
Reconstruct the scene in fragments of memories
F#m D
I wanna know what his mother looked like up close
C#M A
I wanna see her leaning over his body
F#m D
So I float there, transcend time
C#m
I wanna capture it accurately
F#m D E
I wanna know what the color of the blood was
C#m A
Spilling out from the tarp onto the concrete
N.C.
I wanna write it all down so I can always remember
F#m F#
If you could see it up close how could you ever forget?
Bm A
How senseless death, how precious life
G#m
I wanna be there when the bullet hit
F#m F# F#7 A
[Verse 2]
F#m
And the crowd poured out as the shots drowned into siren sounds
A E
Out of their houses now and over front yards
F#m A
All the way up to the place where the police tape ran to mark the crime scene
E F#m
Everybody trying to catch a glimpse of what was happening
A E
Of what was going on between the ambulance and all the cop cars
F#m A E
Everybody gossiping, “Whose kid got hit? Where’d it hit him? And who could’ve fired it?”
F#m A E
Everybody wondering, “How did it happen again? And is he dead? These children. Our
kids.”
F#m A
Everybody wondering how far they were from where the victims live
E F#m
And I visit them, their houses
F# A
Inside my dream I visit them
F#m F# A
My spirit, soaring high and high up over King Park
E F#
Leaves the crime scene, travels further back
A
Til far before the shooting
A
Through their windows
F#
To their living rooms
A E F#m
I see them younger this time, playing games and doing homework
A F#m
All these marks of youth soon transformed coldly into stone
F#m
For fights and stupid feuds
E
For ruins wrapped in gold
F# A
And cruelly I recall why I have come to find a reason
F#m F#
But there cannot be a reason, not for death
E F#
Not like this, not like this
[Intermission thing]
N.C.

E A Bm G D F# E A Bm X2
[Verse 3]
Bm G
Three days later they made funeral plans, the family
D F# E
Three days later a mother... ...had to bury her son
A Bm B G D F# E A
Bm
Not far away the shooter holed up in a hotel
G
Near to the highway with a friend and the gun
F# E A
That same gun
Bm G
He'd fled immediately but was identified by witnesses
G
His picture on TV, only 20 years old
D
They called him “Grandpa”
F# E
He was older than the others by a year
A
Maybe two
B Bm B
And he was safe for awhile until somebody saw him there
Em
And notified the authorities
C Am
Who surrounded the hotel, first arresting an accomplice while attempting to flee
Em G C
Then chasing him up the staircase to the floor where he’d stayed He closed the door
hard behind him
B
Locked himself in the room
Em
They could’ve kicked in the door
C Am
But knew the gun was still with him
Am
One he’d already used and so they feared what he’d do
Em G
I floated up through the window of a room to the West
C B
I hovered out to the hallway, tried to listen in
Em C
I heard them trying to reason, get him to open the door
Am
His uncle begging and pleading, half-collapsed to the floor
Em
He preached of hope and forgiveness
G C
Said, “There is always a chance to rectify what you’ve taken
B
Make your peace in the world.”
Em C
I thought to slip through the door, I could’ve entered the room
Am
I felt the burden of murder, it shook the earth to the core
Em
Felt like the world was collapsing
G C
Then we heard him speak
E C E
“Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?
Am Bm
Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?
Em E G
Can I ever be forgiven cause I killed that kid?
C
It was an accident I swear it wasn’t meant for him!
Em
And if I turn it on me
C E
If I even it out
Am B
Can I still get in or will they send me to hell?
E G
Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?”
C
I left the hotel behind
E
Don’t wanna know how it ends
