A Shot Across the Bow Mayday Parade
Key of C: These chords are relative to Capo 3!
[A2]It's time I said this
But I'm so choked up and I need my sanity[F#m]
I'm sca[D2]red, believe me, you can see me sm[E]ile if you let me just stick a[A2]round.
[A2]Well this is bye-bye baby
It isn't like a sudden stop on a frei[F#m]ght train
If yo[D2]u're not happy and you hurt this [E]much, then let me just stick a[A2]round.
But can I have one[D2] second of your time?[E]
If I don't it'll drive me crazy.[D2]
As I drop to my knees and scream,[E]
I hate you more than you could know.
[A2]I hope you fall into the ocean
[E]And the current leaves you helpless, swimming aroun[E/F]d[F#m]
As the waves crash over you until you [E]drown. [D2] [E]
(And fall away..)
[A2]And hold a funeral for nothing
[E]And celebrate how empty love can be broken[E/F] [F#m]
It takes the sea to pu[E]t you six feet happily [D2]underground[E] [A2]
[A2]Now it's back to reality
I'm up in shambles but I guess that's how I sh[F#m]ould be
I knew the wedding bells were ringing well, but my bride w[D2]as missing.[E]
It's not supposed to hurt this much[A2]
But when someone slowly breaks it off[F#m]
It tends to leave a bitter taste, a scar, th[D2]at slowly rips apart.[E] [A2]
Could I have on[D2]e second of your time?[E]
If I don't, it'll drive me crazy.[D2]
As I drop to my knees and scream, [E]
I hate you more than you could know.
[A2]I hope you fall into the ocean
[E]And the current leaves you helpless, swimming aroun[E/F]d[F#m]
As the waves crash over you until you [E]drown. [D2] [E]
(And fall away..)
[A2]And hold a funeral for nothing
[E]And celebrate how empty love can be broken[E/F] [F#m]
It takes the sea to pu[E]t you six feet happily [D2]underground[E] [A2]
[F#m] [D2]
Underground..[F#m] [D2]
[F#m]I've had enough, but it's all for the best.
[E]I need to get a few things off my chest.
[C#m]There's got to be another way I can say it,
But to get [D2]it right, I have to[E] think straight.
[F#m]Hope he tastes like the way I used to taste.
[E]I can't believe I'd even say this to you now.[C#m]
When you won'[D2]t listen at all.[E] [A2]
[A2]I hope you fall into the ocean
[E]And the current leaves you helpless, swimming aroun[E/F]d[F#m]
As the waves crash over you and over y[E]ou until you drown. [D2] [E]
[A2]And hold a funeral for nothing
[E]And celebrate how empty love can be broken[E/F] [F#m]
It takes the sea to pu[E]t you six feet happily [D2]underground[E]
[F#m]It takes the sea[E] to put you six feet hap[D2]pily underground.[Dm] [A2]
