Shoot It Straight

Intro: Em

Em
Words cut like diamonds through this window pane,
Bm
Voices crashing loudly, in what seems to drown the rain.
C
And I speak in tounges and clench my fist,
C                                   Em
In hopes to shine some light on this mess.

Em
You point your gun right in my face,
                               Bm
Lucky for me you've never been one to shoot it straight
     C
So i dodge your bullets, cut and sway,
C                              Em
Your words don't bother me so I say.

G                                     D
How much longer will i wait for these skies to turn from grey
Em7                                     Csus
And your lies will wind up only hurting you
           G                   D
But i will wait for the sun to go but return,
   Em7                              Csus
in light of all the pain you put me through,
Em
i wish you only knew.

Em
Now when poison is burning through my veins,
         Bm
Well I'm hoping that you are to blame
     C
This truth you find in me
    C                              Em
I'm losing can't you see, and now I know
     Em
When guns go and leave you lying in the sand,
       Bm
Well I promise you I'll be the bigger man,
    C                    C                        Em
and bite my tongue, just know that son I'm here to stay

             G                            D
And how much longer will I wait for these skies to turn from grey
         Em                             C
And your lies will wind up only hurting you
           G                   D
But i will wait for the sun to go but return
   Em                               C
In light of all the pain you put me through,
C                         C                     Em
The pain you put me through, the pain you put me through.

C        C          Em       C            C          Em
You know I will be a fool, to ever take my eyes off of you
C        C          Em       C            C          Em
You know I will be a fool, to ever take my eyes off of you
