Capo 6
G D Em7 Cadd9
She had a face straight out a magazine
G D Em7 Cadd9
God only knows but I'd never leave her
G D Em7 Cadd9
Her balaclava is starting to chafe
G
But when she gets his gun
D Em7 Cadd9
He's begging babe stay, stay, stay
G D
I'll give him one more time,
Em7 Cadd9
We'll give him one more fight,
G D
Said one more line,
Em7 Cadd9
Will I know you
G D Em7 Cadd9
And if you never shoot you'll never know
G D Em7 Cadd9
And if you never eat you'll never grow
G D Em7 Cadd9
You got a pretty kinda dirty face
G
And when your leaving your home
D Em7 Cadd9
She's begging you to stay, stay, stay
G D
I'll give him one more time,
Em7 Cadd9
We'll give him one more fight,
G D
Said one more line,
Em7 Cadd9
Will I know you
Am7
And I'm aware that you have got your gun
Cadd9
It's much harder now the police have come
Am7
And I'll shoot him if it's what you ask
D G*
But won't you just take off your mask
D* Em7* Cadd9*
To find out everything's gone wrong
G D
Now everybody's dead
Em7 Cadd9
They're driving past my old school
G D
He's got his gun, he's got his suit on
Em7 Cadd9
She says babe
G D
You look so cool
Em7 Cadd9
You look so cool
G D Em Cadd9
You look so cool
