verse 1: 

          G                             D 
Hey Patty Garrett, that's what I used to call you. 

                 G                          D 
They tell me you want me, but I here they've got you. 

                G                            D 
They made you a law man, with a badge made of silver. 

                   A7                   D 
They paid you some money to sell them my blood. 

        D7                    G                      D 
But you say:  This ain't about me and this ain't about you, 

                        A7                    D 
Or the good and the bad times, we've both been through. 

         D7           G                               D 
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed, 

                       A7                       D     Asus  D 
You do what you've got to, 'cause you can't walk away. 


verse 2: 

                         G                       D 
I wonder what would have happened if you were the killer 

              G                        D 
and I was the hero, would things be the same? 

                G                      D 
Or would I have traded your life for my own life? 

             A7                     D 
Would I have paid your debts in your place? 


        D7                          G                      D 
I don't know.  But this ain't about me and this ain't about you, 

                        A7                   D 
Or the good and the bad times we've both been through. 

         D7           G                               D 
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed, 

                       A7                       D     Asus  D 
You do what you've got to, 'cause you can't walk away. 


Chorus: 

      G                   D 
Blood Money, that's what I call it, 

                     A7                     D   D7 
'cause money for blood, ain't no fair exchange. 

      G                        D 
Blood Money, bought and then sold you, 

                          A7                       D 
but your conscience is all you can take to your grave. 


(Repeat Chorus)
