verse 1 
D                                          Cadd9 
When the triggers moving backwards, and the pin hits the shell 
        G                            Cadd9 G       D 
When my soul sinkin’ slowly into the warm  pits of hell 
D                                          Cadd9 
Won't you tell my baby sister that I'll be back in the fall 
           G                              Cadd9  G       D 
Cause it's better to have false hope than no     hope at all 


[Refrão]
          Cadd9                          G 
And I'll be meeting with my savior to go over my foolish deeds 
        Cadd9                          Cadd9    G     D 
When he asks me why I did it lord I'll blame it on the seed 
         Cadd9                                     G 
Cause it didn't grow in like I planned and when it did it all went dry 
      Cadd9                                Cadd9  G    D 
And I couldn't stand to hear the pain of a, small baby crying

verse 2 
      D                                 Cadd9 
Well I remember in the graveyards well I used to read the names 
      G                                 Cadd9   G    D 
And I wondered when the good lord would take my soul away 
       D                           Cadd9 
Well I wonder if he planned it to happen like this at all 
         G                                         Cadd9  G      D 
With the shot heard halfway cross the world and my sins   on the wall

And I'll be meeting with my savior to go over my foolish deeds 
        Cadd9                          Cadd9    G     D 
When he asks me why I did it lord I'll blame it on the seed 
         Cadd9                                     G 
Cause it didn't grow in like I planned and when it did it all went dry 
      Cadd9                                Cadd9  G    D 
And I couldn't stand to hear the pain of a, small baby crying 

            D                                  Cadd9 
And they'll tell me I'm a bad man, but they’ve never seen the sight 
     G                             Cadd9   G         D 
Of a baby wailing in his crib, and ripping apart the night 
      Cadd9  G    D 
It’s a small baby crying
